I have a lot of energy after 2 A.M. I like to sleep in the morning. I have some problems at the start of the day.

I like things simple.

French people are charming, adorable but not extremely generous with foreigners, but they believe in what they do. I feel proud in exchange because what I did in restoration is something I did for La France.

I am happy that thousands of students, young designers and fashion people will be able to see and study my work in every aspect of it.

My title rivals are behind me but at the moment I am not thinking about that. My target is to finish on the podium and then well see where everybody else is.

I know what women want. They want to be beautiful.

I am like a freight train. Working on the details, twisting them and playing with them over the years, but always staying on the same track.
