The Rykiel woman? She doesn't have time to stop time. She's too busy running. In her hands she's carrying a tote, a baby, a book, a camera.

Everyone knows that life is very expensive and you can change, you can turn, you can play with clothes with a lot of accessories.

Paris was a melting pot.

You can have a conversation with your eyes.

I've never been interested in dressing one woman. What's interested me was to have a philosophy. It hasn't been important to put a woman in a blue dress. I wanted to dress women who wanted to look at themselves. To stand out. To be women who were not part of the crowd. A woman who fights and advances.

Women should look at themselves and decide for themselves what color or length they should wear.

A dress will never make a woman sexy, fatale, magnificent, mysterious. It's a way of walking, of standing, or existing, the way you give your hand or your regard. That's what makes the dress.

The pill was the liberation of the spirit of women.

To me, the biggest revolution of the 20th century was the pill.

I never played a part in the feminist movement - it touches me, but I am not a militant.
