french mom work
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.'
cool exciting london mind small
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.
maybe paparazzi
I always try to be nice to the paparazzi because finally, maybe one day, they won't ask for me, and I will regret it.
good love noise wear
I love the noise of my wooden clogs on my wooden floor. Dancers wear clogs. They're good for you.
kate might
If Kate Moss hadn't been booked when she was 14, Kate Moss might not exist.
I never think I have to prove something.
describe people
If people ask me to describe my look, I always say: 'Quite classic with an edge.'
art love loves music reader woman
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.
If you listen too much, you won't be able to create.
I like to surprise people. I try to take risks.
french work
I definitely want to work on a project with young designers, not just French but international.
fashion people
I do think fashion is fun! Much more than people think.
education money quite
I don't think because you have money you have taste... Education and money - this is quite rare. No?
