I Just Hate Talking About Myself.

If I Have Done Anything, It Is To Make Ugly Appealing. In Fact, Most Of My Work Is Concerned With Destroying—or At Least Deconstructing—conventional Ideas Of Beauty, Of The Generic Appeal Of The Beautiful, Glamorous, Bourgeois Woman. Fashion Fosters Clichés Of Beauty, But I Want To Tear Them Apart.

In America Many Things That Are Interesting Are Seen As Odd.

I Want To Make Clothes That Are Beautiful Of Course, But Also Clothes That Are Interesting And Considered And Intelligent And Not Out Of Place.

The Younger Generations Have Their Own Ideas, They Have Their Own Projects. When They Talk, I Am Always Surprised How Much More Lucid And Cultivated They Are And How They See Things In A Way That Is Much More Complex Than, For Example, Other Generations Did.

I'm Not Interested In How People Dress. Of Course, I Recognize If Somebody's Elegant. But Fashion Doesn't Interest Me.
