Makeup is the finishing touch, the final accessory.

I have no problem going on record with this and probably have gone on record with this before, there aren't that many people who I respect. There just aren't.

I go through phases where I buy only Speed Stick and Axe, and Noxzema shaving cream.

Both my partner and I did not get into cooking so that we could wear ugly chef's coats and stuff. We dress sexy in the kitchen.

That was a time when I did love music, I couldn't get enough of what was going on. Maybe it was Nirvana that brought me back. I guess it was a comfort because something that sounded so right - and non-commercial - had become so influential, so immediately.

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

I don't think there is just one Louis Vuitton woman. That is why, for the fall/winter 2011 show, I loved the idea of lots of different characters - a wife, a mistress, a girlfriend - stepping out of the row of hotel elevators.
