When I'm at an event, I like to be an eccentric dresser. I will just keep wearing what I like.

I'm not really involved with politics... I'm living in my cocoon with my classical music around.

I am a dreamer. Seriously, I'm living on another planet.

I love fashion from the 1930s and '40s - shoulder pads, high waists, things with structure. That is classy for me. Andrea Riseborough from the Madonna movie 'W.E.' had an amazing wardrobe.

I'll need my whole lifetime to polish my craft.

I think British men build up the idea of us French girls having some magic extra sex appeal so much, they lose their heads. I can't really understand the whole thing - but it makes me laugh. It's such a cliche to think all French girls are well dressed, elegant, sophisticated and sexy. Some are utter slobs, I promise you that.

I play the piano. I bought an upright piano that is actually electric, so I can practice my scales with headphones on and not make my neighbours' lives hell!
