Quote

At hotels, you are an actress. Absolutely. You can do what you want. Go where you want. I love my home too. But I love to arrive in a hotel. They have books, chocolate, food. I put things in the little refrigerator.

I don't like women who are multiform, who wear many different shapes. Women who retain a unique shape are usually unique people.
Sonia Rykiel
Image
I have to say that the identity of a fashion designer is international today.
Sonia Rykiel
Image
Perfume follows you it chases you and lingers behind you. It's a reference mark. Perfume makes silence talk.
Sonia Rykiel
Image
After all these years of creating my collections, I still doubt my decision even until the last minute before the fashion show, I keep questioning myself and wondering if I did the right thing.
Sonia Rykiel
Image
The fashion industry can in a certain way be very hard and closed.
Sonia Rykiel
Image
I have the feeling I've always done what I wanted throughout my life.
Sonia Rykiel

How can you live the high life if you do not wear the high heels?
Sonia Rykiel
Image
We are not saying that all women should be thin like these very thin and young girls. We are creating a show, with its artistic codes and rules, and we have to try not to mix up all the codes together.
Sonia Rykiel
Image
I hate the word feminine! I mean, there is a woman and a man and when I say woman it suggests all that is radiant, tender, fascinating, gentle, demoniac, exaggerated! Feminine makes me think of somebody who is spindly and over-sweet: I don't like that!

My shows are about the complete woman who swallows it all. It's a question of survival.
Sonia Rykiel
Image
The key to my collections is sensuality.

I am still taking care of the creation of the collection alongside my staff, and my daughter Nathalie Rykiel, is the artistic director of Sonia Rykiel, who takes care of a lot of things. We are very alike and also very close.

Image
I think that clothes should be a shelter like a house or a rug. I think that there is that element of protection and a uniform can be just that.
Sonia Rykiel
Image
I think that there are so many women who understand nothing about clothes and they should try and understand themselves before they start putting on disguises: they should stand in front of the mirror for a day, two days or three, and find out what they have which is beautiful, interesting: what they should show: hair, neck, arms, or hands.

For the collection, I am like a painter or a writer. I may or may not be a character in my own story.
Sonia Rykiel
Image
It's important to know yourself well, in order to create your own style of fashion to suit your own body shape.
Sonia Rykiel
Image
The essence of seduction for me in a man, although it stems from his rough, almost rough-neck looks, still contains something of the woman: he must be seductive and intelligent.
Sonia Rykiel
Image
I think that the boy-woman is a very strong image and a lot of fascinating women are like that: Gala [Dalí].

In the same way, I can wake up with a very positive idea of what I want to do for my collection, and be completely desperate at night regarding the same thing. And I do a lot of other things too: Writing for me is almost as important as drawing my collection.

The natures of men and women are very mixed and for me the most fascinating type of woman is the one who is a little masculine, has a little of the man in her, and the sort of man who is fabulous is the one who is a little woman too. It's impossible not to mix them!
