What you wear represents you to the world, especially now, when communication between people is so fast. Fashion is a universal language that everyone understands.

If I have done anything, it is to make ugly appealing. In fact, most of my work is concerned with destroying—or at least deconstructing—conventional ideas of beauty, of the generic appeal of the beautiful, glamorous, bourgeois woman. Fashion fosters clichés of beauty, but I want to tear them apart.

I had no fun. My family was too serious.

The older I get, the more I prefer to talk to old people. Old people or kids.

I remember being mad about having pink and red shoes. I gew up envying other girls' pink and red shoes.

Image
When I talk with people, I don't even see what they are wearing . . . No, I recognize it if it's something particularly nice and interesting. I see the exception.

One's life and passion may be elsewhere, but New York is where you prove if what you think in theory makes sense in life.

Image
When you want to do something that is challenging or interesting or new, you never find the place. All the places are obvious or old or generic. And so you realize that the role of architecture is fundamental.

Prada is something that should be so mundane, like clothes.
