A dress is a piece of ephemeral architecture, designed to enhance the proportions of the female body.

Colour is what gives jewels their worth. They light up and enhance the face. Nothing is more elegant than a black skirt and sweater worn with a sparkling multi-stoned necklace.

I wanted to be considered a good craftsman. I wanted my dresses to be constructed like buildings, molded to the curves of the female form, stylizing its shape.

Fashion is architecture: it is a matter of proportions.

By being natural and sincere, one often can create revolutions without having sought them.

Zest is the secret of all beauty. There is no beauty that is attractive without zest.
