I like the dream, like fantasy dresses. Women can dream at 9 in the morning and at 10 o’clock at night, it doesn’t matter.

I always say, 'If you can’t eat it, it’s not food, and if you can’t wear it, it’s not fashion, it is something else.'

Sometimes you don't really need armor to feel protected. Sometimes maybe you need just a chiffon dress to hug you.

I know amazing people in fashion who are anything but fake. They are very real and very sensitive. They are happy and sad. They are loyal friends.

Fashion is about having a fantasy.

I think that if you want to pass emotion, you have to write a letter. Emotions do not pass in SMS or in e-mail.

Making them feel gorgeous and comfortable is my way of making women's lives easier.

It was not the story of design or clothes, it was the fantasy of women that made me want to work in fashion.

I think 'modesty' is a beautiful word today - and a beautiful attitude.

For me, the sketching of dresses was about fantasy and dreams. In my little room at home, I felt that I was somewhere else. In Paris, for instance.
