dress fashion makeup needs vice wear work
To me, makeup is fashion and vice versa. What I dress and what I wear always needs to work with my makeup, which is usually the same anyway.
dark love vision work
If Caravaggio was a photographer today, I would love to work with him. I love his dark vision - I have a dark vision.
high mario since stopped wearing worked
I started wearing high heels when I first worked with Mario Testino. He is tall; I had to be at his height. And I have never stopped since then.
work
When you're writing, you're on your own, and I like to work as a team.
across biggest deal hospital length perhaps work
We are very lucky to work in fashion and not work in a hospital or something where the biggest deal we come across is perhaps the length of a skirt.
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.'
designers work
I am very excited to be able to work more with young designers and support them.
becomes bit brands business celebrity dressing fashion fight good job red wears work
I am not a celebrity. I work with celebrities, and it is very difficult. When a celebrity wears a dress, it's good for business, so brands fight for the red carpet. Me? I don't like it, because fashion becomes a job about dressing celebrities. And it's a bit boring.
french work
I definitely want to work on a project with young designers, not just French but international.
art bunch learn
In Japan, you can learn how to make a bunch of flowers. This is an art. Tea ceremony, it's an art.
people
I know that people in fashion and people in general hate to be filmed.
beauty
I'm not bad-looking, but I'm not a beauty, either.
invites love
I love if someone invites me to a restaurant, so I don't know if that's a feminist.
kate might
If Kate Moss hadn't been booked when she was 14, Kate Moss might not exist.
