Femininity is a lot of power. It's allure. And the moment you start competing directly with a man, it's not that fun.

I think it is good that fashion is a challenge because when something is a challenge, you want to do it better.

Fashion is magical, a fantasy. It's madness, and it doesn't last. It's changing all the time.

You can wear them with anything. It's the person and the way that they wear it that makes it different. I have been designing white shirts forever, but I don't get tired of it.

I rarely go into a shop on holiday, because fashion and design are what I'm involved in every day. I need another world.

A man has to have sensibility, wit, mystery, tolerance, and strength... Romance also helps.

Life is hard. It is not too short, it is too long. But you have to learn how to live; you have to have a sense of humour.
