I hate mules. I hate the noise when someone walks with mules. Clomp, clomp, clomp. I think it's very not chic. I don't even like a flip-flop. I don't like this noise.

What is chic is just to be perfect, like magical, no?

Here in France, I've seen some very good young designers, but they don't have this ability to be good businessmen, too. I think America gives you this.

I think that something needs to be weird in order to have a real beauty.

I think when I became a grandmother my life changed a lot, and I think I changed personally.

I discovered the slip dress, which I think is one of the more French things because when you take off your clothes, even when to go into a shop to buy something, or you're going to Riccardo Tisci to try on a suit, it's like having protection.
