I never went to fashion school. I didn't know what a designer was. I knew I had something, but I didn't know what it was. And it could just have easily been nothing.

I don't like the word ['classic']. It makes you think we didn't do any work.

I can drive a certain car one day with great pleasure, and the next day I'll be disappointed that the experience isn't as good as the day before. These cars have moods that change with the weather, or with the driver's own moods.

I have always done what I love myself. My philosophy was that I never had focus groups. I did what I wear.

It’s easier to follow fashion than it is to have personal style.

I believe one can live many lives through personal style. Every day is an occasion to reinvent yourself

When you think of the blur of all the brands that are out there, the ones you believe in and the ones you remember, like Chanel and Armani, are the ones that stand for something. Fashion is about establishing an image that consumers can adapt to their own individuality. And it's an image that can change, that can evolve. It doesn't reinvent itself every two years.
