An ordinary person can simply walk into a shop and feel that they can participate in helping the needy by simply buying a perfume.
You can think you've made it and yet the next day's press will always be waiting for you, the public will always ask more of you. In short, you can always do better!
I find that fashion recently has been a little too hasty. Oftentimes it's put together quickly to catch the attention of the media, and I didn't want to do that.
The products that are moving out of the stores the fastest are those that are most expensive.
They're sort of like a little ballerina shoe,
There's a lot of trousers. There are some dresses, about 20 of them, ... Skirts are just above the knee. I've also done Bermuda shorts. They're cut on the bias to give them a lot of movement, and they're also very light.
It always depends on how it's done - it mustn't be overtly exhibitionist.
China approaches fashion with strong enthusiasm. And I believe that this enthusiasm can be translated into something interesting, economically speaking. Not only for my brand, but also for other brands.
I've always worked. I have always been too responsible. But I don't know how to live any other way. I think that this discipline was also demanded of me by my work.
I've used a lot of jersey, but I've also done a lot of complex pattern weaves in these fabrics in solid colors, and there are lots of little dresses for cocktail and evening. I've done a series of very important evening dresses as well, just to show that these two ideas can also work well together. Today's woman can wear an important evening dress or a simple pant and top. It's all in the personality of the woman.
I know that people who have been closely involved with my work for many years are terrified of having to answer to someone else, someone who is not me, and that it won't be me to help them in their problems. This is my real problem.
Sì is my tribute to modern femininity, an irresistible combination of grace, strength and independent spirit.
The difference between Fashion and Style is Quality
I started to take care of my body after I turned 50. I never liked how I looked physically because I was too cute, short, with coloring only on my cheeks, the perfect little nose, and then the blue eyes. But I would have preferred to have the look of a tough guy from the wrong side of town - one of those fascinatingly ugly looks.
