I know what I am able and not able to do. Fashion? OK. Fashion... clothes in theatre, in an opera, in a concert - all that I love. To make a movie myself... no!

I can not forget Melina Mercouri in black dress at 'Never on Sunday'.

Clothes are expensive. You have to buy them, and to buy them, you have to believe in them.

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

There are many kinds of beauty, and you can find it where you least expect.

For me, difference is beautiful, there is not only one beauty, and in a collection I always like to show mixed directions. When you look at people or things, there are all these codes and standards that come into play around what is considered ugly or beautiful, and I've always questioned that. When you're a kid, you're not conditioned, you don't see perversity, there's a state of innocence where everything is beautiful, you see differently....I am lucky because I am doing now what I dreamt of doing as a child, and I like to think that I've retained a childlike state of mind.

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