I only know how to play one role: me.

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

I like imagination -- and the way I think things could be, had been, or should be -- better than reality.

When I was 14, I wanted to smoke because my mother smoked like mad. I wanted to smoke to look grown-up. But my mother said: 'You shouldn't smoke. Your hands are not that beautiful and that shows when you smoke.

When you hear designers complaining about the challenge of their profession, you have to say: don't get carried away-it's only dresses.

If I were a woman, I would love to have lots of kids. But for men, I don’t believe in it.

I try not to be sentimental and obsessive about possessions. I love collecting, but I hate owning.
