What is beautiful for you may not be beautiful to someone else. Or whatever is beautiful here may not be beautiful there and what is sometimes beautiful today is not necessarily beautiful tomorrow. Perhaps this is the story of fashion and what makes it move forward, the fact that there is no decision whatsoever with what’s wrong.

The problem with couture is not designers; it's what happens when the couturier will no longer be there.

I am very much a people person.

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

When I'm traveling the world, I don't ever look anymore at the geography - just enough to catch galleries and paintings.
