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

I'm interested in the poetry of reality.

I'm interested in the intimate relationships we can have with those good clothes that we may have in our closets.

I try to bring as much taste, smartness, quality, functionality, and aesthetic qualities to everyday clothes.

It's true that I've made mistakes, but I know I shouldn't do them again.

This is what I've always been interested in, trying to make timeless, functional, real clothes.

If I really think about what drove me from the beginning to become a designer, it is really the idea of trying to make everyday life a little bit better - to make it more functional, more desirable, to improve quality of life somehow.
