needs thinking
Nothing is ever enough for me. I'm always thinking what is wrong, what needs to be fixed.
writing thinking play
I don't think that you can write music if you don't know how to play an instrument. You have to know the basics, then you can go forward.
writing thinking letters
I think that if you want to pass emotion, you have to write a letter. Emotions do not pass in SMS or in e-mail.
thinking care designer
I don't think you can be a designer if you don't care.
thinking want hearing
I want to know where is that committee in Switzerland that sits to decide what is in and what is out. I don't listen to the formula makers. I think maybe I have a selective hearing disorder.
dark thinking editors
I always think, if I were an editor, and I was invited to a show, and I would have to wait for 45 minutes in the dark or in the cold or in the heat, maybe I would like to have a fresh drink or a piece of chocolate.
thinking flying want
What we want is clothing we think we can fly in. That's why I opened the show with flying dresses.
men thinking accessories
I barely finish one pre-collection before I must start on another. Sales start, but I am already elsewhere creatively. The men's show is being prepared, but we also need to think about accessories, perfumes and other items. In sum, I never stop.
fashion thinking talking
Everybody's talking about the new democratic world and whether high fashion is relevant. But without high there is no low. I don't like to intellectualize. I've always said fashion is like roast chicken: You don't have to think about it to know it's delicious.
fashion thinking said
I've always said fashion is like roast chicken: You don't have to think about it to know it's delicious.
thinking always-trying dresses
I am always trying to put myself inside: Every dress I do, I think, 'If I were a woman, would I wear it?'
fashion thinking needs
Fashion is not always about what's new, it's also about what's good. And I think if you need to see what's good, you have to be there.
fashion winning thinking
I think fashion is about longevity and doing your work. It isn't about winning or losing. It's about process, keeping it going.
fashion mean thinking
All the young people in fashion worship the people who have been around a long time. I think it is about keeping something going through the generations. Take my work: Just because I'm not 20 anymore doesn't mean that people don't appreciate what I do.
