What I find most interesting in fashion is that it has to reflect our time. You have to witness your own moment.

I put pressure on myself to propose something new - I think it's the minimum that you can do as a fashion designer.

I've always been fascinated by people's capacity to care. Everyone has a different capacity for it. Some people can take on more and deal with more. Today, with the economy, I have such respect for the hard work that has to be done. But we're on this planet and we have a responsibility to ourselves to care.

Fashion is a playground up until a certain age. But then you have to find your own signature and your own style.

I'm the kind of person who, even after a shoot that I've loved, is always moving on. There is no gap.

For a long time, my uniform consisted of a trench coat, wide flared jeans, and little bottines - I copied a pair that my mother had in this theater place. I had, like, 10 pairs of the same shoes.

In French we have this word déclic. It's when you have, suddenly, a light shining and you say, "This is what I want to do."
