On How Fashion Fits In to His Life

“Yeah, I suppose fashion is a part of my life. Not in any kind of major way. I think everybody has a costume – I’m pretty simple. I just like things that are relatively classic and timeless.,” Wood tells Mr. Porter.

“I spend more time digging back than I do looking into what’s happening currently. I find it more gratifying – I think it’s harder now to find really great records that you fall in love with. It’s far easier to find something from the past that blows your mind,” Wood continues in discussion of his music label.
