When you hear designers complaining about the challenge of their profession, you have to say: don't get carried away-it's only dresses.
You come first, the clothes later. Reinvent new combinations of what you already own. Be creative.
I like everything to be washable, myself included.
To reinvent a newly impeccable you in the most modern of outfits, don't skip on makeup and be sure to have flawless skin and hair. That will have more impact than expensive clothes.
I don't like sleeping with people I really love. I don't want to sleep with them because sex cannot last, but affection can last forever.
I don't like standard beauty - there is no beauty without strangeness.
Fashion is a language that creates itself in clothes to interpret reality.
Those social networks, there's something sad about them. Is it because they don't have enough knowledge about friends and people? I don't understand it. It's like a talkative mirror where people talk to themselves. And what I hate most in life is selfies.
Trendy is the last stage before tacky.
The thing at the moment is Adele. She is a little too fat, but she has a beautiful face and a divine voice.
What i like about photographs is that they capture a moment that’s gone forever, impossible to reproduce.
I forget nothing and then, one day, there will be revenge. Innocence isn't exactly everywhere. But I will say innocence also takes you far in photography.
If you stick to something doggedly, you are off to a bad start.
If you're not ready to do a non-stop dialogue with fashion, you should do another job.
