Fashion is treated too much as news rather than what it is, what it does and how it performs.

I come in. I'm going to sketch, I'm going to drape, I don't know what I'm going to do.

Clothes should be as interesting on the inside as on the outside. Even if you enjoy it totally alone, it's important.

I tell women not to believe everything they read about fashion.

When I don't have any ideas, I pick up fabric and start working with it and something happens.

I hate clothes that look saleable. I love when they look desirable.

The greatest concubines in history knew that everything revealed with nothing concealed is a bore.
