I am very surprised by someone like Alexander Wang. I am amazed how he is good with fashion, with business, with public relations himself, with an attitude in his clothes that is spoken immediately.

You lose attitude when you feel too comfortable, so I prefer to wear clothes that have a certain edge to them.
Pregnancy is something that I always love. It's about hope and the future and a new baby.
I'm still like a butterfly going from one job to another job. But it's quite lovely - I hope to keep this freedom, to have fun.
London Fashion Week isn't the most organised, but I don't mind that. It's such an exciting place - it's small and cool.
Thinking differently is my strength.
I think it's less common in France that a man at the age of 50 buys a Porsche and gets a young girlfriend.
Each morning, you dress to become a different woman. Fashion helps.
It is very wrong to sleep in your make-up, but when you wake up the next morning, I think it looks very good.
Each morning I do my ballet class for one hour; after that, it means one hour less to get ready.
You discover yourself through the research of your work.
I am from the age of magazines, so the Internet is terrifying to me. But I am learning.
It is good to be in front of the lens to appreciate more being behind the lens.
When Tom Ford asked me to consult for Gucci, I had never consulted in my life. I didn't know what consulting was, and look, we made something amazing.
When in doubt, wear a suit. Look at male politicians: you see them in a suit, and they look fine. But if you see a picture of them on the weekend or on vacation, there's a good chance they look terrible and unstylish.
I am very lucky in that I can eat what I want and don't have to follow any special diet.
If you are a reader of 'Harper's Bazaar,' to me, you are a woman who loves fashion, but not just fashion; you love fashion, you love travel, you love art, you love music.
Enthusiasm is something so positive.
I mix talents and friendship, which is not very professional, but it's my way of thinking. So I love Azzedine Alaia, because I've known him for 30 years, and he's making my dresses most of the time.
My mom read French 'Elle' when I was a little girl, and so, when I was 15 or 16, I said, 'I want to work in fashion.'
The true test of a man's style is the haircut. There are some men who look good no matter how their hair is styled, whether it's trendy or not. A man can change his haircut many times, but to pull off any haircut, you have to be very chic. Like Brad Pitt.
'Grandmother' doesn't mean that you have gray hair and you retire and stay home cooking cakes for your grandchildren.
In a way, I envy the freedom artists have. Artists can push themselves beyond their limits, in pursuit of their ideas and their vision, even if they are inhabited by demons that can also play tricks on them.
