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

I have loved corsets since I was small. When I was a child, my grandmother took me to an exhibition, and they had a corset on display. I loved the flesh color, the salmon satin, the lace.

I would like to say to people, open your eyes and find beauty where you normally don't expect it.

All of my life shown me that if you wanted something enough, if you were passionate enough, it would happen.

People think that everyone wears black in France; in fact they all wear grey.

I was lucky to have parents who loved me.

I like the dynamism and the joy cabare creates. I have always taken my job very seriously, but have always liked to have fun, to play. I like tradition and classicism but I have always liked to mix it up, even if it shocks at times.
