It's true that fashion is looking at fashion all the time, and this is quite boring.

Fashion is a playground up until a certain age. But then you have to find your own signature and your own style.

What I find most interesting in fashion is that it has to reflect our time. You have to witness your own moment.

Never forget that what becomes timeless was once truly new.

More than anything, I'm designing for a woman of today. I want to be a witness of my time.

I'd rather work with someone who likes what I do than create something for the red carpet that won't make me happy.

You never do things thinking you will make a big statement. It just happens sometimes and you are lucky.

In French we have this word déclic. It's when you have, suddenly, a light shining and you say, "This is what I want to do."

I put pressure on myself to propose something new - I think it's the minimum that you can do as a fashion designer.

For a long time, my uniform consisted of a trench coat, wide flared jeans, and little bottines - I copied a pair that my mother had in this theater place. I had, like, 10 pairs of the same shoes.

Your priority has to be the creativity - and build a brand. That's what everybody did - Balenciaga, Dior, Saint Laurent. That's the smart thing to do.

Music rots when it gets too far from the dance. Poetry atrophies when it gets too far from music.

Our reactions to trials, tests, and tribulations are products of the price we're willing to pay to stay delivered.

I love figuring out a stranger, sitting down and learning about their loves and struggles and everything. People are my jam.

I love anywhere new and different. That's the fun of travel. I've always loved driving through Spain, France and Italy - sometimes in an Alfa Spider.

I suppose I shall have to compound a felony as usual.

Programmers have not been professionals because they haven't really cared about quality.

I couldn't love fashion more, like I don't think it's possible to love fashion more. I will say, since I've had my son ... he has surpassed that love

A circulating library in a town is as an evergreen tree of diabolical knowledge.

Dilige et quod vis fac. (Love and then what you will, do.)

I don't care what other people say. I fight every day to be the best player I can.
