If You Cut A Painter's Hands Off,

I Try As Much As Possible To Give You A Great Basic Product And What Comes Out, I Feel, Is Really Amazing.

The '90s Were Extremely Diverse, Almost Like A Laboratory Of The New Century. There Was Much Experimenting Around, In Politics, Economics, Gender And Family Structures, And Also In Fashion. There Was A Cloud Of Possibilities Which Kept Us All Dizzy.

I Feel That Things Happen For A Reason And Open Up New Opportunities.

The Apparent Pointlessness Of Fashion May Be Just What Makes It So Strong As A Zeitgeist Sensor. Even I, A Designer, Do Not Know Why A Certain Proportion Feels Dated Or Why Another One Feels Exciting At A Given Moment. I Leave That To The Cultural Historians And Theorists.

Initially, It Was The Unpractical In Fashion That Brought Me To Design My Own Line. I Felt That It Was Much More Attractive To Cut Clothes With Respect For The Living, Three-dimensional Body Rather Than To Cover The Body With Decorative Ideas.
