My eccentricity became direction.
My clothes have always been expensive. Even though I have had a few lower-priced lines over the years, little by little everything I do tends toward the luxury market.
My best experiences with movies have come when I didn't know what to see.
It is beautiful to be what you are.
In France, history is paralyzing.
If it's too fashiony, it's not interesting to me.
I've always felt more at home in the UK than in France.
I'm still astounded by some people's reaction to things I consider quite normal.
I was lucky to have parents who loved me.
I was fascinated by movies from age 12.
I take life as it happens. And I give myself a lot of freedom.
I start each collection thinking how I can refresh my classics.
I know what I am able and not able to do. Fashion? OK. Fashion... clothes in theatre, in an opera, in a concert - all that I love. To make a movie myself... no!
I have loved corsets since I was small. When I was a child, my grandmother took me to an exhibition, and they had a corset on display. I loved the flesh color, the salmon satin, the lace.
I don't know exactly what is my impact, but I can say I am doing fashion my own way.
I could say that making clothes is my way of communicating, because I was always so shy.
I am very lucky because I am realizing my childhood dreams, and after presenting my shows it's like a party.
Fashion is not art. Never.
Fashion is about what you look like, which translates to what you would like to be like.
Doing fashion drawings was the only way I had to express myself when I was a teenager.
Clothes are expensive. You have to buy them, and to buy them, you have to believe in them.
Always my collections are made of different influences.
You see me, I wanted to be fashion designer. I became fashion designer. So I think that everything is possible.
I would like to say to people, open your eyes and find beauty where you normally don't expect it.
I don't like dreams or reality. I like when dreams become reality because that is my life.
