recently admitted he still wears her designs because he finds them
comforting.
He told the : “I am still wearing her clothes… I don’t find it difficult
emotionally to wear her clothes. In fact it’s quite nice for me.
“I’ve got a big selection of her stuff and the wardrobe mistress goes
nuts because I always want to bring them all on tour.
“At the end of the day I just pick them up and go: ‘Ah that’s one of
L’Wrens… I like this one’.”
L’Wren and Mick were together for 13 years before she committed suicide in the
apartment they shared in New York.

way”.
However, Mick told the Mirror that he is finally starting to come to terms
with the tragedy.

fashion company.
