A very young girl, myself, and my 70-year-old mother all look quite different wearing some of the same clothes from my shop. The whole secret is to know how to do it and some people never will, just like some can't make light pastry: they are lacking in some sort of grace.

The fashion industry can in a certain way be very hard and closed.

After all these years of creating my collections, I still doubt my decision even until the last minute before the fashion show, I keep questioning myself and wondering if I did the right thing.

When I was a kid, all I liked were books and chocolate.

I did not plan to have such a career in the fashion world. All that I wanted, was to have ten kids and raise them!

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

The fashion industry is a free world, with creative codes that can be hardly considered sometimes, but it's also up to women to create their own style, and own trend.
