I do think one should have clean feet.
Manolo Blahnik
Paris is paramount for fashion, always was - always will be.
Manolo Blahnik
I'm always kind of contradictory to what people want and what's selling. But maybe I should care now because I have two or three more outlets. I have to be more adaptable color-wise to what people want. It's usually just black and pink, and that's it.
Manolo Blahnik
I've never been tempted to do these hideous furniture shoes.
Manolo Blahnik
I saw these girls like Sherilyn Fenn and Lara Flynn Boyle that should be working now instead of these anonymous girls. They're all the same.

What is fashion? It's discipline. Discipline and a credo to do only the best, down to the smallest detail.

Shoes are the quickest way for women to achieve instant metamorphosis.
Manolo Blahnik
When I was a boy I remember the women, how they dressed, how they behaved, what was important to them at the time. Like Lee Marvin and Gloria Grahame in The Big Heat.
Manolo Blahnik
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.
Manolo Blahnik
The only people that come to my mind in the last years are Lee McQueen and John Galliano. Truly, truly . . . How do I say? Full of ideas. Full of the smell. They just had this incredible passion for what they did.
Manolo Blahnik
I adore Jean-Louis Trintignant - even at 100 years old he's fabulous.
Manolo Blahnik
It's the only thing I get inspired by! I get inspired by dreams. Who cares about the rest?
Manolo Blahnik
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.
Manolo Blahnik
A lot of things trigger my inspiration. It can be the most banal things.
Manolo Blahnik
You get two weeks after you do a shoe where you can test whether it's good or not - if you're going to like it in 20 years. Then I know that it's going to be my shoe for a long time. That doesn't happen very often, but it happens.
Manolo Blahnik
It was so interesting that the girls were moving in such a different way.
Manolo Blahnik
I always love China, especially the old China.
Manolo Blahnik
I'd been to Saint Petersburg before, but there's been a change in people's minds. Maybe it's a fashionable thing, but people have returned to the churches. I went to a Russian Orthodox and a Catholic church - both of the queues, enormous!
Manolo Blahnik
My shoes are special shoes for discerning feet.
Manolo Blahnik
Everything is global now. It's not London, it's not Spain, it's not Italy - everything is everywhere. So you have to be everywhere, I guess.
