I firmly believe that success lies in the combination of both talent and business savvy, and that the magic comes through partnership between both.

I have a lot to learn from designers.

It's important to feel what the customer is feeling when he enters the shop.

Creativity is really at the center of what I do, it's a mix of creativity, innovation and savoir faire that creates magical products.

That's what's good about life - that you always learn.

It's important to celebrate the monogram. It's the DNA of Vuitton. I think - I hope - there is an interest in the philosophy and culture of the Vuitton name. It's quite coherent and intellectual, and the products are great. These are things you will want to pass on - things you treasure.

Im lucky that its about fashion and perfume and cosmetics. If my father had owned a tire company, I dont know what I would have done.
