I don't believe in people who think that clothes are not important.

I would say there is no Prada woman. I'm interested in women in general. I don't have any kind of preference.

When I design and wonder what the point is, I think of someone having a bad time in their life. Maybe they are sad and they wake up and put on something I have made and it makes them feel just a bit better. So, in that sense, fashion is a little help in the life of a person. But only a little.

I'm not interested in how people dress. Of course, I recognize if somebody's elegant. But fashion doesn't interest me.

Designing for me is a very complex process. There are many ideas that I want to express in one object, very often contradictory. The creative process in Miu Miu is completely different from that of Prada. Miu Miu is not as complicated and thought out as Prada. Rather than being young, Miu Miu is immediate Prada is very sophisticated and considered; Miu Miu is much more naive. The solution, when I am working on Miu Miu, has to come immediately, instinctively, spontaneously with whatever is available at the moment. If I think three times, I stop.

The older I get, the more I prefer to talk to old people. Old people or kids.

Every day I'm thinking about change.
