Advertising is, of course, important because advertise is the final design. It's the last layer that speaks to the customer, that tells them what you have.

I love to design. I am a commercial fashion designer. I always design jackets with two sleeves. I don't design jackets with three sleeves, or the layers and layers come off like little dolls from Russia. Fashion for me is a creative endeavor, but it is not art for me.

I believe that when you really want to do something, you should go ahead and do it. I mean, I feel fear, but I never let that stop me.

I never want to retire until the day I drop dead. I want to work and work and work because work, I don't do for money, I do for love. And I love to work.

Style is very different from fashion. Once you find something that works, keep it.

I think that monogamy is artificial. I do not think it's something that comes naturally to us.

France? I don't want to be anti-French but there isn't a more unattractive group of people on the streets.
