For me, the summer will be pure gray - mother-of-pearl gray, very pale gray. To me, this is the big statement for summer. Then we have light blue, light turquoise, lots of pink.

I love very much the night after every fashion show when I have all those invitations to parties and I stay quiet at home by myself.

In those days, when I was a little kid, I met the truer more authentic people of my life. The men were so pure, strong, honest, and faithful unto death - with an incredible sense of respect for a boss.

Designing came to me. I didn't have to move.

Even Michelangelo got paid for doing the Sistine Chapel. To those artists who say they're doing it for the love of art, I say: Get real.

My only dream is to get old and finally have time to read all the books that I'm collecting.

I want always to be positive.
