There is no better designer than nature

I spent a long time learning how to construct clothes, which is important to do before you can deconstruct them.

I think I should be a president. President of the United States.

I work with people I admire and respect. It's never because of who they are.

I think sometimes I might scare the editors, because they might feel they're getting old and they're not understanding it. The problem lies on their side of the fence, not mine. I come from a different era and I design clothes for our era.

Beauty can come from the strangest of places, even the most disgusting of places.

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.
