First, at a certain point, I wanted to have my own magazine, but I never could. Why? Because I am not commercial enough. The people who would have been able to give me my own magazine, they were not insulting me, but they would simply say, "It wouldn't work for you." And that was a big disappointment to me.

It's true that fashion is looking at fashion all the time, and this is quite boring.

Never forget that what becomes timeless was once truly new.

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

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.

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

I have a quality where I sort of scare people. But I am who I am.
