I mean, the shoe - there is a music to it, there is attitude, there is sound, it's a movement.

Cinderella is not only an iconic character when it comes to beauty, grace and fairytale love, but also shoes.

You have two categories of Shoes, Shoes which are dressing a woman or Shoes which are undressing a Woman

Really good shoes have to seduce both men and women.

One moves more slowly in heels. Walking fast is neither sexy nor engaging. Nobody notices the people who race around. If you're walking in heels, you've got time. It's much more attractive.

I have no problem with the idea of comfort, but it is not an important thing aesthetically. If you look at a shoe and immediately say it looks very comfortable, in terms of design, it is not going to excite me. Of course, I am not putting nails in my shoes to ensure everybody is in pain, but a heel is not a pair of slippers and never will be.

I never wanted to design clothes. I never wanted to work for the fashion industry. Shoes sort of belong to the fashion industry, which is why I'm part of the fashion industry. But that's never been my thought. My thought since I was a child was really to design those shoes for girls on stage.
