The present fashion system is too hard - there are too many collections. The designers have no time to think! Money is too important. Schedules are too crazy.

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'm always telling young designers to take the time to surround themselves with women.

If you're sad about what you see in the mirror when you wake up every morning, you must change it.

I love films-they are like paintings.

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.

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