People are so codified - it's sad.
In France, history is paralyzing.
I can not forget Melina Mercouri in black dress at 'Never on Sunday'.
The shock of the way I mix patterns and fabrics can be disconcerting, but what I am trying to do is provoke new ideas about how pieces can be put together in different ways. I think this is a more modern way to wear clothes that in themselves are fairly classic.
I start each collection thinking how I can refresh my classics.
I don't know exactly what is my impact, but I can say I am doing fashion my own way.
