It's the only thing I really enjoy - so fresh, even now that I'm doing the new sampling. I'm dying to go to the factory, which is like nobody's idea of fun. But it's mine.

I am not a movie star or a football player, I just do my thing.

Maintenance is terribly important.

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. And when she doesn't know, she really prepares herself. I love this working type of women. And she's a girl from - I don't even know where she's from.
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.

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
What is fashion? It's discipline. Discipline and a credo to do only the best, down to the smallest detail.
Manolo Blahnik
It was so interesting that the girls were moving in such a different way.
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.
Manolo Blahnik
I do think one should have clean feet.

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
I've never been tempted to do these hideous furniture shoes.
Manolo Blahnik
My most treasured clothing item is first suit that I made - acid green. It was disgusting, but I love it. It's been mended a million times, but I still wear it.
Manolo Blahnik
Men tell me that I've saved their marriages. It costs them a fortune in shoes, but it's cheaper than a divorce. So I'm still useful, you see.
Manolo Blahnik
I forget about the diseases that I have. I don't want to know.
