It is a paradox of fashion that the film director Tim Burton, a man who regularly lands on worst-dressed lists along with his partner and muse Helena Bonham Carter; a man often excoriated for his matted hair and onion-peel layers of clothes, is also one of the most aesthetically influential film directors currently working, at least as far as that self-same fashion industry is concerned.
Indeed, says Kate Mulleavy, one half of the Rodarte design team, “I’m hard pressed to think of someone who works creatively and is not inspired by Tim Burton. Even if it’s subconscious.”
