The trouble is, most people are not so generous. Everybody wants love for themselves. I hear this all the time from the women I work with. I hear them say, "I want, I want." I never hear them saying what they want to give.

What you wear represents you to the world, especially now, when communication between people is so fast. Fashion is a universal language that everyone understands.

My family was too serious. They didn't take care of me - it was a very serious and severe life. Not severe in a bad way; just boring - like totally neutral. I felt no emotion.

Fashion fosters cliches of beauty, but I want to tear them apart.

You have to always work against what you did before, and even against your taste.

Nostalgia is a very complicated subject for me. I'm attracted by nostalgia but I refuse it intellectually.

I once tried to make lace - which has been a great obsession of women - unsexy. And I achieved it.
