I am very much a people person. If I am in a beautiful place but I don't like the people, I am miserable.

I created the peplum so you can eat in it. You can have a dessert, you can have another sandwich.

At Yves Saint Laurent, I felt like the son-in-law - like I was part of the family, but not quite. When I was fired, I felt like the widow.

I think 'modesty' is a beautiful word today - and a beautiful attitude.

My dream is to be a doctor. I'm almost working in a laboratory, because I'm trying new techniques, new directions and fabrics, new weaving.

I love to see old women. I love wrinkles. I love gray hair.

Making them feel gorgeous and comfortable is my way of making women's lives easier.
