Fashion fosters cliches of beauty, but I want to tear them apart.

Women often don't want to admit that they like fashion. And yet fashion enthralls everyone, from the taxi driver to the mega-intellectual. I have often asked myself why this is. I don't know the answer.

Seduction is a matter of feelings and people opening themselves. I don't think it's something tricky - it's being human. And everybody is seduced by something different.

I like to be useful to people.

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

I'm not interested in how people dress. Of course, I recognize if somebody's elegant. But fashion doesn't interest me.

To have to be sexy? That I hate. To be outrageously sexy? That I love.

I think more and more, if you live in the current world - and live internationally - it's all a mix of interests, and the same people who are interested in fashion are also interested in movies, art, and culture.

I suppose I felt guilty not to be doing something more important, more political. So in a way I am trying to use the company for these other activities.

Women have the stress of being beautiful, of age and youth. Men don't have all that. And with women, that stress causes a lot of mistakes and bad choices - a lot of not being their true self.

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.

Ugly is attractive, ugly is exciting. Maybe because it is newer. The investigation of ugliness is, to me, more interesting than the bourgeois idea of beauty. And why? Because ugly is human.

I like getting older and being the person who people ask for help.

My family was too serious. They didn't take care of me - it was a very serious and severe life. Not severe in a bad way just boring - like totally neutral. I felt no emotion.

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.

Many of us grew up with a kind of puritanism against shopping. But shopping can be much more than how it is cast. If you are bored or you have problems, it can be a way of lifting your spirits, by doing something light and superficial. Why not?

What you wear is how you present yourself to the world, especially today, when human contacts are so quick. Fashion is instant language.

I’ve never wanted to be called an artist. The term itself seems old-fashioned. It’s a term that does not relate to modern times. And it’s too confining. What I love about fashion is its accessibility and its democracy. Everyone wears it, and everyone relates to it.
