What are you wearing right now?

I am wearing a Tom Ford Prince of Wales check suit, an Hermès scarf and Hermès croc slip-ons. Oh, and 2(x)ist underwear.

Who's your style icon?

Without a doubt, my style icon would be Tunisian-French fashion designer and former creative director of men's clothing at Christian Dior, Mr Hedi Slimane.

What can't you live without?

Tough question! I know – a dog's affection.

Describe the best outfit you've ever worn

I think that the best outfit that I have worn would definitely be the beautiful custom-made Dior suit that was tailored by Hedi Slimane, that I wore for my civil partnership four years ago.

What's in your wardrobe?

After the clear-out for 'Out The Closet,' it's really been pared down to the bare bones. I have, however, saved some Dior for posterity, as Hedi doesn't have his own archive and I just couldn't bear to part with these pieces!

What's in your man bag?

At the moment, it conatins some lip balm, my keys, my BlackBerry, some ginger lozenges, a Moleskin notebook and my Louis Vuitton pen. There's also Bach's Rescue Remedy and some sugar-free mints.

If you could live in any decade, style-wise, which would it be?

The 1920s – I love that era, because it was a time when everything was all about glamour, elegance, and celebrating life.

How often do you look in the mirror?

As little as possible.

The latest Elton John Aids Foundation pop-up shop 'Out the Closet' is open to the public until 19 December.
