I am not a designer that buys vintage to be inspired.

I didn't understand the advantages of staying active until I was about 27.

I am more used to seeing my work like a big collection, and only part of it is being shown.

What is funny is when you do a futuristic movie, you immediately get to be fashionable because you're creating something that doesn't exist.

The aim of being a good designer is to have an influence. If you design furniture or lifestyle, you should influence the way people evolve globally. It's good to have an influence. I feel like people on the street today probably dress better than they did in the '50s.

We always see the point of an iceberg. So I've always accepted the idea that people - they don't necessarily know everything I am.

Knitted fur is so modern and light, it makes this retro shape cool again.
