You have to like the present; if not your life becomes secondhand, if you think it was better before. Or that it will be better in the future.

I have no idea of the future -- never, ever. That's what I like about fashion. It's paradise now.

Fashion keeps me designing: the love of change, the idea that the next one will be the right one, the nonstop dialogue

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 love classic beauty. It’s an idea of beauty with no standard.

Some people would like me to be round again.

Buy only because something excites you, not just for the simple act of shopping.
