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.

People find my things sometimes aggressive. But I don't see it as aggressive. I see it as romantic, dealing with a dark side of personality.

There’s blood beneath every layer of skin.

Style is not about the clothes, it's about the individual

I think there is beauty in everything. What 'normal' people would perceive as ugly, I can usually see something of beauty in it.

I come from a different era and I design clothes for our era. I think of people I want to dress when I design.

Fashion is self confident and fearless.
