Feeling free inside oneself is being free.

For me, I haven't succeeded in any way whatsoever.

Fashion is something that you can attach to yourself, put on, and through that interaction, the meaning of it is born.

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

It was also never wanting to be part of any group or movement or anything that was the done thing. I hated organization. When you have a group, you have a leader who is going to put down the rest of the group.

It would have more meaning for me to hear what critics have to say if their values and their ways of living were deeper and more serious.

The very, very first thing that I wanted was to make a living - be independent and have a job. It might have come later, that kind of reaction to the boringness of fashion.
