Fashion is about dreaming and making other people dream.

Die and born again, die and born again. It's the story of my life.

If I could dress anyone, I'd like to dress the Queen - she can handle anything. I'd put her in black - she never wears black - and add a little leather, maybe. A little rock n' roll.

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

Heterosexual men like to be sexy more than gay men, honestly.

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.

I always wear high heels - I simply feel naked without them.
