The fashion world is very active and generous, despite the fact that it is not very well respected - or at least not as much as it should be.

Women have the stress of being beautiful, of age and youth. Men don't have all that. And with women, that stress causes a lot of mistakes and bad choices - a lot of not being their true self.

I remember being mad about having pink and red shoes. I gew up envying other girls' pink and red shoes.

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

Now, I'm not saying I'm fashionable, but there are sociological interests that matter to me, things that are theoretical, political, intellectual and also concerned with vanity and beauty that we all think about but that I try to mix up and translate into fashion.

Seduction is a matter of feelings and people opening themselves. I don't think it's something tricky - it's being human. And everybody is seduced by something different.

When I talk with people, I don't even see what they are wearing . . . No, I recognize it if it's something particularly nice and interesting. I see the exception.
