If I look back I feel frightened, not happy, because my life is a bit of a mystery to me.

People walk differently in high heels. Your body sways to a different kind of tempo.

I couldn't care less about business.

Women are wearing tight and sexy clothes again. It is the body-conscious mentality, and women are revealing every bulge.

I watched L'eclisse [1962] with Alain Delon and Monica Vitti. Changed my world. What a glamorous and modern film. This is what a genius is - the thing of a genius. The dresses, the tiny heels, the Cardin look, the boys dressed up as Italian gigolos - it was divine, very modern. [Michelangelo] Antonioni, I loved and I realized: how modern.

I don't even think about the word. But I do have certain things where I just go, "Aaaaahhh," irritatingly boring and insistent because I want it to look that way and I can do it - I don't even know if you'd call it passion or obsession. Obsession, possibly, but I really love what I do.

I wish I was making shoes instead of reading or watching movies, which is what I do in my free time.
