Fashion will last forever. It will exist always. It will exist in its own way in each era. I live in the moment. It's interesting to know the old methods. But you have to live in the present moment.

I even do my ready-to-wear samples like couture.

I'm working 24 hours a day. I have had a house in Tunisia for 20 years, and I never have time to go because there are collections, fittings.

I think women should be seductive, not triste. Theres enough sadness in life now without making women look sad, too.

There is a sensuality about fabric. I think all materials should be inviting when they touch the skin. When I watch children stroking their mothers clothes, I feel that I have succeeded.

Bill Cunningham he knows fashion better than anybody.

My obsession is to make women beautiful. When you create with that in mind, things can't go out of fashion.
