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

To have to be sexy? That I hate. To be outrageously sexy? That I love.

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.

Fashion is instant language.

Clothes can be important. I am learning this. For instance, often when I design and I wonder what is the point, I think of someone having a bad time in their life.

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.
