Fashion Priest: 10 Questions With Twitter's Funniest Style Guru

10 Questions With Fashion Priest

London Fashion Week may have come to a close - after just five days, confusingly - but here at Huffington Post UK Comedy we're still celebrating the world of style in, well, style.

Yes, some months ago we brought you a Q&A with Twitter celebrity @WeirdHorse. And hot on his hooves, we sat down with a relative new kid on the Twitter celebrity block: @fashpriest.

As he says in his Twitter bio, Fashion Priest has been "putting the Christian in Louboutin since 1513 BC." So read on for his style secrets, top tips and modish musings...

What’s your number one fashion rule?

Fashion shouldn’t be an inquisition. It’s much more important than that.

Which celebrity would top your ‘best dressed’ list?

I should say the Pope, but if you ask me he’s been poorly advised recently. I mean Prada, really? It’s fine for the devil, but I’ve always thought God was just a little edgier. If you’re talking loafers, it’s Berlusconi every time. #OMHolyG

What’s the most amazing outfit you’ve ever worn?

A meat cassock, gifted to me as a tribute by the Haus of Gaga. I was concerned it might only be a seasonal piece, but I had the genius idea of curing the meat. It’s since become a long-running wardrobe staple. #CharcuterieChic.

Who’s your favourite designer, and why?

You know him as Karl Lagerfeld. I know him as The #Karldinal. He is the high priest of monochrome and you are not fit to kiss his ring, nor stroke his Choupette. I die. #Crucifashion.

Who’s your favourite religious leader, and why?

For a while it was Sun Myung Moon. He totes owned the white silk onesie look. Pairing it with that crown was, frankly, genius (I still occasionally rock the look at Epiphany mass at St Martins). But, like Julian McDonald for Debenhams, these are false idols that distract from the one true fashion faith. Go home, light a (Jo Malone) candle and acquaint yourself with the Gospel according to Marc. #AbsolutionFabulous

What’s the biggest fashion faux pas you’ve ever seen?

It used to be Vicar-toria Beckham. She was totes fashion low-church. But I think our annual retreats together are starting to work wonders. #Amen

Which trends are hot right now?

It’s all about the thrill factor. One key piece that adds kapow - be it a brocade skirt or sparkling clutch. On a priest’s modest stipend you need focus.

Which trends will be hot in 10 years’ time?

Hair shirts have been in the wilderness for far too long. But Henry H and I are hatching plans. Watch this space. #RealKardashianHair #Revelation

What piece of advice would you give to any budding fashion priests?

Only this: blessed are the chic.

Complete the famous fashion saying in your own words: ‘Blue and green…

..is for lepers'.
