I'm totally twisted. Instead of, Oh god, I don't have platforms - they won't like me, I was much more, I'm doing what I'm doing, and if you don't want to buy it, then don't buy, but that's just what I'm gonna do. It gave me strength. It worked for me.

I thought Victoria Beckham was going to be one of those pop girls, but she's absolutely the complete opposite. She's a working girl. She knows what she wants.

Maintenance is terribly important.

I don't even know Amanda Seyfried or whatever - they're all the same!

I don't like very young women very much. Never did.
Manolo Blahnik
Image
I love exaggerated, and I love eccentric, but you must be comfortable. Otherwise it is nonsense. There is nothing charming about a woman who cannot walk in her shoes.

I adore Jean-Louis Trintignant - even at 100 years old he's fabulous.

The imprint of Miss Hepburn is absolutely, totally present. Like it or not, she will be the most important look of the twentieth century.
Manolo Blahnik

I'm going to do what I do, even more exaggerated. This is my attitude always. I don't betray myself at all.

I never wanted to be the most famous, the most beautiful, the most extravagant.
