Fashion is instinctive and sensual. Learn to love what you wear. It should feel like eating chocolates...wi thout the calories

I certainly can't complain. I work six days a week, if not seven, and eighteen hours out of twenty-four - fortunately, with a great deal of pleasure. Why? Because I only do something if I want to do it; I need to feel a desire, to find pleasure in moving forward, creating, moving, inventing.

I don't go out to parties because I'd look terrible in pictures. My escape is television - it's like meditation to me.

In fashion, we have a reputation for being such a façade, fake people, but none of the fashion people who I know are fake.

I was a fat child; I was asthmatic. No wonder I'm a hypochondriac.

I always think, if I were an editor, and I was invited to a show, and I would have to wait for 45 minutes in the dark or in the cold or in the heat, maybe I would like to have a fresh drink or a piece of chocolate.

Pure, intense emotions. It's not about design. It's about feelings.
