My own skin-care ritual is quite simple and straightforward; I don't like a lot of fuss, surprisingly. My products are designed to make you look and feel better. I think there are a lot of men out there who want and need the same products.

Only hire people you want to have dinner with.

In fashion as in life, the right thing at the right time is the right thing. The right thing at the wrong time is the wrong thing.

On the one hand, I want to go off and live in the desert with my dog and sculpt things out of adobe.

Part of fashion is newness. It's got to be a new combination of elements that's shocking-stunning-beautiful all at the same time. But it doesn't have any emotion.

If I had been a dog walker, I would have been the most successful dog walker in Paris.

The seventies is what I love. Soft, touchable beauty is what I love.
