From the very beginning I've said to women not to follow the fashion rules blindly, and to adapt clothes to suit who they are, and not the contrary.

I have to say that the identity of a fashion designer is international today.

In my family, Fashion was something we never talked about, it was thought of as kind of superficial.

I started by designing a sweater very close to the body, because I couldn't find any for myself.

You know, the more grown-up you are, the more you like Proust.

At hotels, you are an actress. Absolutely. You can do what you want. Go where you want. I love my home too. But I love to arrive in a hotel. They have books, chocolate, food. I put things in the little refrigerator.

People said making clothes inside out was not proper. I disagreed because clothes that are inside out are as beautiful as a cathedral.
