Fashion is about having a fantasy.

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

What we want is clothing we think we can fly in. That's why I opened the show with flying dresses.

Why not touch things that we hate and turn them upside down and inside out?

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

Everybody's talking about the new democratic world and whether high fashion is relevant. But without high there is no low. I don't like to intellectualize. I've always said fashion is like roast chicken: You don't have to think about it to know it's delicious.

If it’s not edible, it’s not food. If it’s not wearable, it’s not fashion.
