I think what I often see is that people are frightened about fashion. Because it scares them or makes them feel insecure, so they just put it down. On the whole people that may say the mean things about our world I think that’s usually because they feel, in some ways, excluded or, you know, not a part of ‘the cool group’ so as a result they just mock it.

[The democratization of luxury] means more people are going to get better fashion. And the more people who can have fashion, the better.

Fashion is not beautiful, neither is it ugly. Why should it be either? Fashion is fashion.
