People tend to fear the ghosts in their own family. You feel these family curses and think, 'If it happened to my father, it could happen to me.'

Men in high heels? That's a prosthesis. But I sympathise. Women have these giant heels. They get taller and taller. The men need help. But a man in heels is ridiculous.

I like Adele, Mika, Natacha Atlas and a beautiful old record, 'An Evening with Belafonte/Mouskouri,' starring Harry Belafonte and Nana Mouskouri. What they have in common is they all have incredible voices. I am very much into voices. I would say I'm a fan of voices, not of sound. I'm a fan of singers, not of bands.

I don't follow anything online. I am rather slow on that side.

I would hate for someone to look at my shoe and say, 'Oh my God! That looks so comfortable!'

I never wanted to work in fashion. At age 12 or 13, I wanted to design for showgirls - for the theater! And I was crazy for the Hollywood of the 1950s: Dietrich, Elizabeth Taylor, Jennifer Jones. They were my idea of glamour - and Sylvie Vartan, the French singer.

In designing shoes for myself I'm not thinking of a specific person or catwalk. I'm just not thinking of clothes at all. I'm always thinking of a naked woman, actually.

I hate the whole concept of the clog! It's fake, it's ugly, and it's not even comfortable!

A lot of men said they were jealous of me because my shoes excite women in a way they can't.

To me, the word 'decadent' is so difficult to use it's a very sensitive word, in a way.

A house is very much like a portrait. I cannot disconnect houses from people. The thought of arrangement, the curves and straight lines. It gives an indication of the character at the heart of it.

I like to undress women - not to dress them. You know, like Manet's 'Olympia' or Helmut Newton's photographs - naked women with shoes. This is what I am trying to do.

I'm a designer, and I think if you work in fashion, you have to give people fantasy.

Strangely enough, I really think that shoes are a communication tool between people.

Listen, to appeal to someone else you might put on a pair of shoes that you don't like or a dress you don't like. But there's no way you're going to put on a perfume you don't like it's too personal.

I prefer girls to wear dresses because I like how they influence a woman's body language. I also love skirts. One of my favorite pieces of clothing is the pencil skirt because it obliges the wearer to have a pretty attitude. I like anything that shows a woman's legs because I love to see her skin and how she walks.

Fragrance is so intimate for a lot of women - it's your essence, your identity.

When you are too specific on a target, it can drain you. Ask me where I will be when I am 60, and I will have no answer to give.

I buy Dries van Noten shoes. I love his clothes, too.
