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.

As a child, I was raised with my grandmother, alongside all my cousins, and the kitchen was always full.

I'm happier about my friends than I am about my work. I still have a long way to go with work. My friends, that's the one thing I'm sure about.

I like black, because for me it is a very happy color.

Perfection is never achieved, so you need to go on working.

The foundation of beauty is the body.

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.
