Fashion is life-enhancing and I think it's a lovely, generous thing to do for other people.

My son has followed fashion since he was a punk. He and I agree that fashion is about sex.

I try to concentrate on quality clothing and accessories that are worth having, and to get my people to take fewer trips by air and stay longer each time they travel. It’s more human, especially if they take time to visit an art gallery while there.

I have certain signatures, certain cutting principles. It could be a raw-edged seam; it could be leaving the lining of sheepskin exposed so it's not perfectly finished. I invent new ways to do it, but the end goal is always the same.

The arts have only ever interested a small minority of people, which acted as a kind of nursery to support artists.

Fasion is about eventually becoming naked.

If you saw Queen Elizabeth it would be amazing, she came from another planet. She was so attractive in what she was wearing.
