We've created a community and these images [from Vogue] will live on with exhibitions, postcards, projections. We help them gain more exposure. Instagram already works as a selection. It's my curiosity into the world of youth, what they do, what they buy.

As for Instagram, I follow about 100 people, but I am not interested in what a designer is doing or what a friend of a friend is doing. I upload my photos on Instagram.

I don't like fashionistas. They only wear the brand. You want to become a fashionista? Easy! Spend money.

I never program anything, I decide at the last minute.

Fashion has always been very generous. Think of what it has done for curing AIDS.

I am a great supporter of [Matteo ] Renzi, he is young, he knows how to communicate, he's our great hope.

We lack an organization that will support fashion week. The five-day week shows a lack of vision and that we are not able to command respect. I am not saying it's anyone's fault in particular, it's our fault. We have the highest concentration of brands, how can we accommodate everyone in four or five days?
