Being a head designer or art director or just even a designer, you need a certain level of experience and maturity.

I'm trying just to do good clothes, clothes that you need as much as you want.

Everywhere I've been working, I always had in mind the final destination of the clothes, which is the consumer.

At Lacoste, I learned how to drive in a very conservative environment. I had to learn how to do politics, how to talk, how to explain, and how to communicate a vision, and the necessary link between marketing and creative teams. Also, very important, the shop experience, which was actually very frustrating at Lacoste.

For me, the fashion show, the image, the shooting, is just a step. It's just a moment, but it's not the final destination.

Being a head designer or art director or just even a designer, you need a certain level of experience and maturity.

With the right team, you can really save so much time and energy. Whereas if you don't have the right environment and the right support from the company, or the right team, it can be extremely tiring and frustrating.
