I like it to stay very organic, and to remember a personal story behind all my subjects.

People always want an explanation about everything and I cannot give it to them. Because I don't know myself. 'Why did you do a pair of pants like that?' I have no idea. I'm not going to have a 20-minute political discussion about the necessity for slashed, painted leather jeans. Basically, I don't know more than you.

Fashion somehow, for me, is purely and happily irrational.

I have a great admiration and tenderness for Azzedine Alaia. I haven't seen him in a while, but I guess he must be still sewing some dresses at night.

Men's fashion has a certain heaviness in the fabrics and construction. But also there is a heaviness in the mentality.

Music has shaped men’s fashion and transposed in a playful and witty manner its riding or military heritage. It is difficult to figure out who leads but music and fashion are connected genetically.

Men are not supposed to be mysterious. That's what you say about women. But I think men can have a little of it, too.
