I oscillate between life and death, happiness and sadness, good and evil.

I am married to work.

Having money hasn't changed me. If anything it's made my life worse. People come up to you who knew you before you were famous and who didn't come up to you before. I'm a clever designer. I can do what the client wants. But I'm prepared to forget about money if it affects my creativity because, remember, I started off with nothing. And I can do that again.

I oscillate between life and death, happiness and sadness, good and evil.

You can only go forward by making mistakes. I'm twenty-seven, not fifty-seven. I'm not Givenchy, I'm Alexander McQueen.

Clothes and jewellery should be startling, individual.

I find beauty in melancholy.
