I want to make clothes that are beautiful of course, but also clothes that are interesting and considered and intelligent and not out of place.

Ugly is attractive. Ugly is exciting.

I was a feminist in the Sixties, and can you imagine? The worst thing I could have done was to be in fashion. It was the most uncomfortable position.

I don't believe that anyone is not bothered by critics. I think that everybody cares.

I was a communist, but being left-wing was fashionable. I was no different from thousands of middle-class kids.

I do what I think is right.

I love clothes. Maybe I can say I don't love fashion, but I love clothes completely.
