That kind of woman who used to be there at the time is not here any longer. In 10 years, people disappear. But I fantasize still about those kinds of women, and that kind of life that doesn't really exist any longer.

More quotes by Manolo Blahnik
I forget about the diseases that I have. I don't want to know.
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
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'm loyal to my thoughts, to my friends. This is what I really like the best. Loyalty. Sounds goody-goody. Maybe that's not the one you wanted.
Manolo Blahnik
About half my designs are controlled fantasy, 15 percent are total madness and the rest are bread-and-butter designs.
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
Really, the '70s and '80s were a blur.
Manolo Blahnik
I'm relating to a period that doesn't exist anymore.
Manolo Blahnik
I'm loyal to my friends, but I have so few now.I force myself to see people when they're here. Or when I'm here. I don't live in England that much now in the sense that I spend time in factories. I'm such a factory man now. This is really what I enjoy doing.
Manolo Blahnik
The greatest luxury is being free.
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.
Manolo Blahnik
It's the only thing I get inspired by! I get inspired by dreams. Who cares about the rest?
Manolo Blahnik
I didn't need it [formal training], because I've got the best taste in the world.
Manolo Blahnik
I don't even know Amanda Seyfried or whatever - they're all the same!
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
It was so interesting that the girls were moving in such a different way.
Manolo Blahnik
Shoes are the quickest way for women to achieve instant metamorphosis.
Manolo Blahnik
Paris is paramount for fashion, always was - always will be.
Manolo Blahnik
Maintenance is terribly important.
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.
