For me, music gives a voice to fashion.

I find older men more attractive than boys. I need a man who can teach me a thing or two.

I have worked with wool all my life as a designer. There's so much more to it than knitwear - it's an amazingly versatile material and can be used in so many different ways from chic to rustic.

I don't like balance. Balance is not a word you can use in Versace fashion.

Fashion is about dreaming and making other people dream.

For so long Versace couture was identified with celebrities and music, which I love. But at the same time it could overwhelm the clothes.

Powerful women intimidate men. If she's a really well-known woman, she has a career, she's famous - in that case, men are really afraid.
