In fashion, you have to have perseverance. You have to do it again and again, but it's something that comes out of my heart, and I love it.

In anything you do, it's important to have your own personality there.

Don't wear excessive make-up as you grow older. Young women can wear whatever make-up they want, but if you are older, you will regret it.

Unfortunately, there's a lot of confusion today over what is sexy and what is vulgar. It's horrifying. They say, 'Oh, that girl is so sexy,' and she turns around and the dress is four sizes too small. Or she's wearing so much stuff, you wonder how long it took her to get ready.

The first painting that I realised I liked was 'The Garden of Earthly Delights' by Hieronymus Bosch, when I was six years old, at the Prado in Madrid. I still find myself returning there every time I'm in the city.

Attention to detail is of utmost importance when you want to look good.

I approach fashion as an evolution. It's always changing. As you know, sometimes it changes in three months.
