I think I'm a global citizen. My parents came from China, were educated in France and emigrated to the United States. And I think that opened up my mind to be able to live and work anywhere.

I love history. I love art. I like to mix it all together, but in the end it somehow has to all make sense.

When punk really started to happen, it was a reaction against the disco craze of the time.

I grew up in the suburbs of Detroit.

I just love the way the '60s rock stars put themselves together, because they were like dandies and peacocks. They really lived out their fantasies - and dressed their fantasies.

There are always different influences each season. It could be a person, it could be a piece of furniture; it depends on what I'm obsessing about.

Well, my whole thing is that I'm kind of like a show-off!
