I am in a key moment. I kind of understand that I have to use my work more completely without being ashamed.

I had no fun. My family was too serious.

I’ve never wanted to be called an artist. The term itself seems old-fashioned. It’s a term that does not relate to modern times. And it’s too confining. What I love about fashion is its accessibility and its democracy. Everyone wears it, and everyone relates to it.

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.

Women always try to tame themselves as they get older, but the ones who look best are often a bit wilder.

I like getting older and being the person who people ask for help.

Craziness in a shoe is great - you can have much more freedom, you can exaggerate and it doesn't feel stupid. But to have too much craziness near your face, that would just feel weird.
