I confess to being a frustrated musician.

The really great thing about my shop is that there's not one dead animal in it. ... Manolo's got a load of fabric shoes as well! We use plastic, fabric, rubber- anything but leather. I almost feel like I've been put here to show everyone that it's unnecessary.

I´m a real believer that just doing a little something is a lot better than doing a lot of nothing.

I don't plan massively in advance.

People think I'm strong, but actually I wanted to crawl away. I thought, I'm going to live in the country with my horse and I'll get a nine-to-five; I don't need this.

My mum taught me to have a soul.

If people stop liking my clothes, I'll make a record.
