My truth is this: That I don't know what will happen tomorrow because you can never know.

In the beginning I didn't want to do a menswear collection. It felt a little forced. And then I found that it was an amazing world.

I've got what I want, and I've got the luck to express myself and to be paid and to do what I do as a creative person.

I can give a beautiful present, and that may change the lives of people around me.

I've always been obsessed with things that are half animal and half human - like mermaids and Minotaurs - because they are trapped in an animal body. And I felt trapped in my own life.

The aborigines in Australia, the way they dress is very honest; it's not about: "Oh, you wear a skirt, you're gay."

I suffered a lot when there was, like, a birthday party and I was not invited. Not because I was ugly or stupid; I was not invited because the parents would say to the kids, "Don't invite him, because he's poor and he comes from the south of Italy, and he can't give you nothing."
