There is nothing scarier than being ‘the designer of the moment,’ because the moment ends.

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

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.

For me, the sketching of dresses was about fantasy and dreams. In my little room at home, I felt that I was somewhere else. In Paris, for instance.

The big room or big suite doesn't mean a lot to me. It is what the people do or don't do that matters.

I work on fittings, mostly. You know, I sketch less and less in my work. I sketch for the show sometimes, but then it becomes more conceptual. But when I don't sketch, it becomes more pragmatic.

To be a fashion critic is easy because you just say, 'I love it, I hate it,' but life is more than love and hate.
