I'm someone who came to Paris as a teenager, and I dreamed of coming back to Paris as a visitor. I never dreamed of having a job at the biggest luxury house in Paris and, you know, 15 odd years later, I'm still here.

I wouldn't know how to find eBay on the computer if my life depended on it.

Awkwardness gives me great comfort. I've never been cool, but I've felt cool. I've been in the cool place, but I wasn't really cool - I was trying to pass for hip or cool. It's the awkwardness that's nice.

It just seemed too weird to me. I don't know, maybe they were smoking a joint in the car downstairs from their parents' apartment. I had to go that far to put together a scenario of how they could have possibly recognized me.

I always say that I'm not the director, I'm part of the team.

Innovation is an evolutionary process, so it's not necessary to be radical all the time.

I like to make things. I like making choices, choosing colours, evoking a spirit, a change.
