I'm a great observer of delicate situations and women. I really like that bygone type of movement, and for a long time I had been looking for it.

I've never been tempted to do these hideous furniture shoes.

The secret of toe cleavage, a very important part of the sexuality of the shoe; you must only show the first two cracks.

David Lynch is démodé now, if you look at his films. I looked at them the other weekend.

You get two weeks after you do a shoe where you can test whether it's good or not - if you're going to like it in 20 years. Then I know that it's going to be my shoe for a long time. That doesn't happen very often, but it happens.

I thought Victoria Beckham was going to be one of those pop girls, but she's absolutely the complete opposite. She's a working girl. She knows what she wants. And when she doesn't know, she really prepares herself. I love this working type of women. And she's a girl from - I don't even know where she's from.

I saw these girls like Sherilyn Fenn and Lara Flynn Boyle that should be working now instead of these anonymous girls. They're all the same.
