Real fashion change comes from real changes in real life. Everything else is just decoration.

It's really about putting that sort of quality and beauty back into our life.

I am one of those people who isn’t great at anything, but I’m pretty good at most things.

Glamour is something more than what you put on your body. It has to do with the way you carry yourself and the impact you have on others.

I like to relax and lie in the water. It is the way I calm myself down. But every time I walk past my bathroom, I go in and I put on some perfume. I use different perfumes for different moods. If I feel that I need to calm down, I put on certain fragrances that are more sensual. If I feel that I need to energize, I put on something else. Fragrance for me is so important.

From the time we're born until we die, we're kept busy with artificial stuff that isn't important.

To me, beauty and sadness are very closely linked. Truly beautiful things make me sad because I know they are going to fade. When I see a beautiful 20-year-old boy or girl-and they are breathtaking-I am filled with a kind of sadness. But maybe they are beautiful because we know they are not permanent and they are in a kind of transition.
