I don't feel French at all. That was never really a concern, and it's limiting to think that way. I think Paris is more of a playground for international designers, so I don't really feel French. And I don't really want to feel French.

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

With my designs and my ideas, I want to please myself first. I'm always very stressed about making a new proposition every season. But in a way, it's a kind of addiction. In another way, it's a crazy pressure. I try to stay quiet about the whole situation, because fashion itself can be crazy, and everyone wants a part of you.

If I were to find something that is going to be more important to me than fashion - that would be work and love - then I probably would let go. That's a possibility. But fashion is an addiction.

I can say, let's go to the DNA of the brand and find something that I can introduce into my work. It's part of the patrimony of fashion.

It is the job of the editors to find somebody. I'm sorry, but you have to get out there and find them.

I like the idea of women and men in movement. My fashion is not about being still. It's almost sporty, sometimes. I like the evolution of sports clothes. I think they are very interesting in the cut, in the fabrics.
