I love to leave, to be ready-for, to be on the run! That's my boyish side, it's the pant's me! Pants which allow for the attitudes, gestures and movements of a man but that are still female in taste and free enough so that I can slip my hands inside!

I will be working on the collection until the day before the show! It's an endless process, that's all that I can say at that stage.

You can create fashion everywhere in the world, but the place where you are crowned is Paris.

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.

Sometimes in the fashion industry we come across some unfair rules, but no one is obliged to follow them.
