Tell me, why do former young designers who are now in their middle 40s have to redo the 1960s and 70s. Why they cannot invent fashion for today?

No, I'm not a French designer either. I'm from nowhere. I'm a European, old European is all I am.

Success nullifies. You then have to do it again, preferably differently.

People want to know everything, and so they put you in the limelight. Sometimes, I am not down to earth, and I think I am flying away from the outer realms of reality.

People are very nice to me, even though I'm known for saying rude things.
