There's beauty in anger, and anger for me is a passion.

You can only go forward by making mistakes.

Women should look like women. A piece of cardboard has no sexuality.

As a designer, you've always got to push yourself forward; you've always got to keep up with the trends or make your own trends. That's what I do.

I'm not interested in being liked.

There’s blood beneath every layer of skin.

The turnover of fashion is just so quick and so throwaway, and I think that is a big part of the problem. There is no longevity.

It needs to connect with the earth. Things that are processed and reprocessed lose their substance.

I never look at other people's work. My mind has to be completely focused on my own illusions.

I used flowers because they die. My mood was darkly romantic at the time.

It's almost like putting armor on a woman. It's a very psychological way of dressing.

I like things to be modern and still have a bit of tradition

There is a hidden agenda in the fragility of romance.

It's good to know where you come from. It makes you what you are today. It's DNA, it's in your blood.

Of course I make mistakes. I'm human. If I didn't make mistakes, I'd never learn. You can only go forward by making mistakes.

I find beauty in melancholy.

There is no way back for me now, I'm going to take you on journeys you've never dreamed possible

If you're an open book, there's no allure.

You've got to know the rules to break them.
