I am very bad at drawing. Seriously. I can draw shoes. That's about it.

People are proud of their tattoos. It's like a modern coat of arms.

If I'm in Italy I'm going to have a cappuccino and two small brioches and then a mix of orange and grapefruit. I don't drink tea in Italy.

Meet people from other cultures, so you understand that the world doesn't swirl around you.

I like to see people who are survivors wearing my shoes. I am fascinated by people who can bounce back.

The shoe is very much an X-ray of social comportment.

A woman can carry a bag, but it is the shoe that carries the woman.
