Very few designers today design - it's very important to be able to do your own sketch on paper and then explain [your vision] to the fabric cutters. Instead, lots of designers drape - it's the new way.

There are only three things I can do - make a dress, decorate a house, and entertain people.

Unfortunately, the greatest photographers don't pay extreme attention to the clothes. If they decide to put a dress in a bathtub or in front of a cow in the countryside with dirt everywhere, well, the dresses come back... ready to be put in the garbage.

I have my favourite fashion decade, yes, yes, yes: 60s. It was a sort of little revolution; the clothes were amazing but not too exaggerated.

It is a big problem and so I don't know for sure if I say yes or no to Ferrari.

Elegance is the balance between PROPORTION, EMOTION & SURPRISE.

I am always locked in my design studio.
