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.

More quotes by Riccardo Tisci
I didn't know I was going to become a designer I was going to become a successful person, but I really wanted to be free.
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
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 prêt-à-porter now we understandably need to make the collection satisfy the big market more, so couture is extra special.
Riccardo Tisci
I come from a very poor family, with sisters. I never really knew my father, so I miss this strong image of a man in my life.
Riccardo Tisci
I love art and music more than I love fashion, to be honest.
Riccardo Tisci
If I am in fashion, it is really due to very few designers that I admire - not because I don't like the rest, or that the rest are not beautiful, but because I am very selective. I adore Versace. I adore Helmut Lang, despite the fact that it's over.
Riccardo Tisci
I can give a beautiful present, and that may change the lives of people around me.
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
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 do the final fitting because the client wants me there. They're not spoilt, they really understand that you're very busy, but they just want you to say what you think - for just ten minutes. They really want to know your opinion because it really is a service at the end of the day, a luxury service.
Riccardo Tisci
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.
Riccardo Tisci
My life has changed financially and I have a name, but I try to never forget people on my journey.
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
The elegance of the Italian South is a very strong elegance and it is one that I bring. It is a sexy elegance - or at least, let's say less chaste.
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
I was lucky. From the time I was a little, I was always surrounded by women, and I am very attracted to the feminine world, because I love the strength and romanticism, which in the end, you can find in my style.
Riccardo Tisci
In spite of the fact that everyone thinks I am very much a rottweiler - that i am very dark and everything - I have a side that is very romantic that i show to very few people.
Riccardo Tisci
My truth is this: That I don't know what will happen tomorrow because you can never know.
Riccardo Tisci
This is very much part of my style, I work a lot on the back - I love the back of clothes for men. I love even T-shirts printed behind. I think, Why do you want to show only the front?
Riccardo Tisci
