I adore women, and the one thing I want to do more than anything is to see a transformation of personality when someone puts on one of my dresses.

What I love in fashion is to tell a story through a creation.

I do sport at the gym a few times a week, but I hate it. Work is my only remedy. I feel so twisted and horrible in the morning, but then I go to the office and I start feeling better. Work is my Tylenol. Extra-strength.

I spend my time backstage at the Lanvin shows, and when I come out at the end, all I see are people's eyes.

Fashion is not always about what's new, it's also about what's good. And I think if you need to see what's good, you have to be there.

I'd rather be relevant than cool.

If you take something out of the freezer, it's cold, but what happens when it melts? It's a cool party, a cool person, a cool collection. What does that mean? I'm more interested in things that are uncool, things that have a certain individuality, a certain soul, a certain longevity, emotion, fragility.
