Dear David, I am sure that your additions are well-intentioned, and the information you have added is interesting. In the edit summary, you write, "Information from primary source (Tom Gilbey), during series of one to one interviews conducted August 2015-Feb 2016." Alas, Wikipedia is based mostly on secondary sources. See WP:PRIMARY for more. Even where we use primary source information, it needs to have been published in a reliable source. See Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources.

Phrases like "universally recognised among the fashion cognoscenti" are not appropriate language for an encyclopedia, see WP:PEACOCK.

With regret, I am going to have to undo your additions again, but I will try to find time to expand the article in an encyclopedic manner. Edwardx (talk) 12:24, 3 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
