I never touch sugar, cheese, bread... I only like what I'm allowed to like. I'm beyond temptation. There is no weakness. When I see tons of food in the studio, for us and for everybody, for me it's as if this stuff was made out of plastic. The idea doesn't even enter my mind that a human being could put that into their mouth. I'm like the animals in the forest. They don't touch what they cannot eat.

The woman is the most perfect doll that i have dressed with delight and admiration.

We need houses as we need clothes, architecture stimulates fashion. It’s like hunger and thirst — you need them both.

Reinvent new combinations of what you already own. Improvise. Become more creative. Not because you have to, but because you want to. Evolution is the secret for the next step.

I love classic beauty. It’s an idea of beauty with no standard.

Never use the word “cheap”. Today everybody can look chic in inexpensive clothes (the rich buy them too). There is good clothing design on every level today. You can be the chicest thing in the world in a T-shirt and jeans — it’s up to you.

Dieting is the only game where you win when you lose!

I want everyone to wear what they want and mix it in their own way. That, to me, is what is modern.
