People say I am the king of painful shoes. I don't want to create painful shoes, but it is not my job to create something comfortable. I try to make high heels as comfortable as they can be, but my priority is design, beauty and sexiness. I'm not against them, but comfort is not my focus.

I haven't yet met a woman who told me, 'I wish I had shorter legs.'

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

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

Madonna is a feminist and has been doing more for the cause than all the grumpy feminists, who are giving nothing back by being grumpy.

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.

One moves more slowly in heels. Walking fast is neither sexy nor engaging. Nobody notices the people who race around. If you're walking in heels, you've got time. It's much more attractive.

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

When you sketch a shoe but don't have the intention to do a proper shoe, it remains a curvy sketch with no detail. The shoe completely morphs to the body.

I'm really not a fascist. Everyone wears what they feel great in, or comfortable with. It's a beautiful day, you have an armless shirt: it goes with flip-flops.

I mean, the shoe - there is a music to it, there is attitude, there is sound, it's a movement.

I wouldn't take it as a compliment if someone looked at one of my shoes and said, 'Oh, that looks like a comfortable shoe.' There is a heel that is too high to walk in, certainly. But who cares? You don't have to walk in high heels.

I hate the idea of natural. For example, I prefer gardens to wild nature. I like to see the human touch. High heels are a complete invention - an extravagance. They're far from natural, but it's the impracticality that I adore. I prefer the useless to the useful, the sophisticated to the natural.

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

The red sole was born from red nail polish. I am giving back to beauty what the shoes took from the nails many years ago.

I was always shouted at by my teacher because I would draw straight on the table in the school.

Shoes are a mirror of what you want, what you are or what you're missing

I remain faithful to bourbon sour. It's absolutely delicious. You'd have to ask a bartender what's in it, but I think if you know you might never have a drink. I also love a little rum, 7 years aged, brown, when it is chilly, before dinner.
