Fashion is ephemeral, dangerous and unfair.

I'm all self-taught. I never had a teacher. Even for English, and French, and German, I hardly went to school.

T-shirts for ten dollars are even more fashion today than expensive fashion.

I see things in the middle of the night. I draw them on paper and I don't even think about it. I'm like a machine in a way - just made of some electronic stuff. Vaguely digital.

What I do Coco would have hated. The label has an image and it's up to me to update it. I do what she never did. I had to find my mark. I had to go from what Chanel was to what it should be, could be, what it had been to something else.

I am not a fashion victim. Fashion is my victim.

I like the idea of craziness with discipline.
