Women should look like women. A piece of cardboard has no sexuality.

I was never a big networker, but I was a spin doctor, all those shock shows, that's how I got my first backers. But fashion's a scary industry to be in, especially if you've not grown up with it.

Some couture collections have everything including the kitchen sink! Everything gets thrown on to make it look expensive.

There’s blood beneath every layer of skin.

Let me not forget the use of my own hands, that of a craftsman with eyes... that reflect the technology around me.

I am an avid follower of the news, and sometimes you just can't take any more war, any more disasters, and you want to remind yourself there's beauty in the world. I wanted to show a more poetic side to my work. It was all about... a feeling of sadness, but in a cinematic kind of way. I find beauty in melancholy.

Really, what I'm aiming for is world domination!
