With women, the more unhappy they are, the more undressed they are.

Fashion is a little help in the life of a person. But very little. After all, if you have a serious drama, who cares about the clothes?

I think more and more, if you live in the current world - and live internationally - it's all a mix of interests, and the same people who are interested in fashion are also interested in movies, art, and culture.

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.

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.

I try to make women feel more powerful without losing their femininity.

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