Anything I do, I do with my heart. This is why I sometimes get very upset or sometimes get very personal when I'm working.

More quotes by Riccardo Tisci
The couture client wants the latest things, but she wants the clothes to be super-special - the fabrics won't even touch or go near anything like prêt-à-porter.
Riccardo Tisci
I tried to never exclude people. I know what it means to be left out.
Riccardo Tisci
My friends were like, Oh, this weekend, we're going to go shopping. Oh, this weekend I'm going to go to see the judo champion ... you know. And I couldn't do anything.
Riccardo Tisci
My luck has always been how I've had a family of women around me, and I have women who are very close to me - for example, Mariacarla Boscono, Carine Roitfeld, Marina Abramovic. I have different women whom I adore and value.
Riccardo Tisci
Couture is emotion. Couture is freedom. Couture is not thinking about pricing and not thinking about craziness. You can do whatever you want to do in couture.
Riccardo Tisci
My relationship with religion is very strong because it was my hope, and it gave me two things very important in my life. It gave me the belief and it gave me a point to reach: Don't do something bad to the people next to you.
Riccardo Tisci
My obsession when I was kid, from '85 into the '90s, was Gianni Versace. It was Helmut Lang. It was Margiela. So I said, I cannot have Givenchy only as a luxury house I'm going to introduce products for everybody, things that are reachable.
Riccardo Tisci
My mom didn't teach me about Marco Polo. She didn't teach me about Napoleon. She didn't teach me about any of that. But she did teach me how to survive and to be a good person. And you need to be a strong woman to do that. She's the biggest person in my life. She's my Virgin Maria. That's why I love religion so much.
Riccardo Tisci
In the beginning I didn't want to do a menswear collection. It felt a little forced. And then I found that it was an amazing world.
Riccardo Tisci
I arrived here, with a destroyed house, with nothing. I had to do everything very slowly. And with a little team and a great president, we achieved a lot. I am happy here. For now, it is still Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci, and I think that it will be for a long time, because it will be difficult to evict me from my house. I feel good here!
Riccardo Tisci
For me, aesthetically, Donatella Versace represent what the Italian woman is. There is always the American rock thing, the aristocratic, above-the-rest British manner, but Italy is at the heart of it.
Riccardo Tisci
I think my heart is in a very good place. And I think this is why I'm achieving what I've been asking to do in the universe for so long.
Riccardo Tisci
I love finding new things. I love the conceptual aspect of Antony Hegarty or the voices of those back in the day like Lil' Kim, Missy Elliott, Ciara. I love what evokes emotion in me.
Riccardo Tisci
No matter how much people in fashion think we're so cool and avant-garde, for most fashion people, creativity is quite taboo.
Riccardo Tisci
I love art and music more than I love fashion, to be honest.
Riccardo Tisci
I hate vulgarity. I hate vulgarity even though it attracts me - and it attracts me very much. I love all that is transgressive or vulgar. But in my opinion, it has to reach a limit that is always a little surreal and never becomes in your face.
Riccardo Tisci
We didn't have a television, so we sat around the table, and me and my sisters and my mom would do these jobs, like, a penny for a piece, you know, these paper jobs. You know, what really saved me as a human today is my sisters and my mom.
Riccardo Tisci
I didn't want to dress anyone in the beginning, no celebrities. Then, very slowly I started with one, two, like that. There are some celebrities whom we dress because they are part of the family. They are women I admire. I don't care how famous she is, if she is at the movies or in a concert.
Riccardo Tisci
I was a very nice boy. I was well-educated ... very Catholic family. So I was very respectful, never late at work. I was always the last one to leave. It's always been that way in my life.
Riccardo Tisci
There are some people whom I esteem and want their opinion first, but that's my way. It is difficult for me to delegate. In the end, I do have two or three people on my team who I listen to.
