People said making clothes inside out was not proper. I disagreed, because clothes that are inside out are as beautiful as a cathedral.

First I made a dress because I was pregnant and I wanted to be the most beautiful pregnant woman. Then I made a sweater because I wanted to have one that wasn't like anyone else's.

My fashion has no time, no season. It doesn't go out of style. If someone decides that clothes can go out of fashion, then you are deciding a woman can go out of fashion.

I don't think that clothes have anything to do with the personality. That comes from the woman herself.

What pushes me forward is everything I have learned: political, social, cultural. I put all that into the clothes.

A woman and a dress, very often, fight against each other because they are not at the same place. Sometimes you see the woman moving the belt around. She is making the robe her own. She needs that. Otherwise, the dress doesn't exist.
