I'd like to believe that the women who wear my clothes are not dressing for other people, that they're wearing what they like and what suits them. It's not a status thing. Insecurity is a waste of time.

Decorating Styles Inspired by Your Favorite Destination

People said making clothes inside out was not proper. I disagreed, because clothes that are inside out are as beautiful as a cathedral. You can hide so much behind theatrics, and I don't need to do that any more.

I am no longer concerned with sensation and innovation, but with the perfection of my style. Fashion to me has become very disposable; I wanted to get back to craft, to clothes that could last.
