Doing fashion drawings was the only way I had to express myself when I was a teenager.

My clothes have always been expensive. Even though I have had a few lower-priced lines over the years, little by little everything I do tends toward the luxury market.

I am very lucky because I am realizing my childhood dreams, and after presenting my shows it's like a party.

I was fascinated by movies from age 12.

I have always been drawn to designing fashions that are rebellious, like black leather jackets on suburban kinds, a corset dress, punk, blue jeans. I love that. Fashion changes all the time, and what is considered extreme or elegant or luxurious (or not luxurious) is changing all the time.

To show the relativity of what's good taste and what's not is something I like to play with.

Clothes became my attraction and obsession early. I wasn't so interested in dressing myself because I was not my object of desire.
