Some say the economy means that you have to persuade people to invest in clothes - to buy less things but more expensive things. I disagree - invest in jewelry, or a house, maybe, but not in fashion.

My main influence is - it's music. It lifts the spirit. I am always listening to music. And sometimes what inspires me is a little sound or some small arrangement. I really do listen to music continuously all day long - very loud, so people can't stand to be around me anymore.

It's no good being too easily swayed by people's opinions. You have to believe in yourself.

The three biggest fashion mistakes are cheap suits, shoes, and shirts. Spend your money on something good.

In fashion, only sexy won’t go out of fashion.

I don't even know what my natural colour is. Natural? What is natural? What is that? I do not believe in totally natural for women. For me, natural has something to do with vegetables.

I think sex is part of life, like eating and breathing.
