In prêt-à-porter now we understandably need to make the collection satisfy the big market more, so couture is extra special.

For me, fashion is a job. I love it. It's my passion. But the most important thing for me in general is life.

I'm very well off but I can stay with normal people. I can do a super-luxury life, but I can do a very normal life and I'm not scared.

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.

My mom and my sisters were amazing; they always see the good in people. My mom, she doesn't know how to write and read much, but she's one of the most fantastic women I've met in my life.

When I was young, especially when I was at school, I thought couture was about big gowns, big hats (that is couture as well, of course) - but my couture is about going near the clothes and having a look at the details. I like people to have a shock in a chic way.

I love art and music more than I love fashion, to be honest.
