Celebrity doesn't really affect the work. What affects the work is the expectations from the outside. This is what no one understands.

I haven't yet made clothes that I have been totally satisfied with, and maybe I never will.

In terms of creation, I have never thought of suiting any system or abiding by any rules. In this respect I have remained free. The necessity has grown, as we have gotten bigger, to think about commercial aspects of the business more and more, because of the responsibility we have toward our staff and our factories.

The more people that are afraid when they see new creation, the happier I am.

In the '70s, if anything, it was a more interesting time in fashion. It was a time when things were changing, especially in London.

I make clothes for a woman who is not swayed by what her husband thinks.
