I think there is beauty in everything.

I can't get sucked into that celebrity thing, because I think it's just crass.

People don't want to see clothes, they want to see something that fuels the imagination.

I just want to be a wallflower. Nondescript. Just not anything. I don't want to see me.

There's beauty in anger, and anger for me is a passion.

I think there has to be an underlying sexuality. There has to be a perverseness to the clothes. There is a hidden agenda in the fragility of romance. It's like a Story of O. I am not big on women looking naive. There has to be a sinister aspect, whether it's melancholy of sadomasochist. I think everyone has a deep sexuality, and sometimes it's good to use a little of it-and sometimes a lot of it-like a masquerade.

You can get insular with fashion.
