fashion art thinking
I think more and more, if you live in the current world - and live internationally - it's all a mix of interests, and the same people who are interested in fashion are also interested in movies, art, and culture.
art people alive
For me, art is about learning and about living with people. It's alive.
artist names people
Because of the Prada name, I can do things that people normally would not care about in the culture. I can have an exhibit by some forgotten artist who I love, and because it's Prada, people will come see it.
fashion art doubt
Maybe nothing is art”, maybe everything is or could be art. To that, no doubt she would have responded like she did in the installation: “The term [artist] itself seems old-fashioned. It’s a term that does not relate to modern times. And it’s too confining. What I love about fashion is its accessibility and its democracy. Everyone wears it, and everyone relates to it.
art reality interest
What interests me most is when a work of art is no longer just an object, but also touches reality and life.
fashion art jobs
We, as designers, have a job with so many possibilities and connections. We are connected to so many different portals, from art to movies to music to design. Fashion is always evolving. Actually, the field is huge. I don't think there is another profession that is so open to so many possibilities.
fight women
Enough of sweetness, women need to get out there and fight again.
evening serious tried
We really think that now evening should come back serious. For me it was interesting because I tried to do a serious evening, but where you feel yourself very comfortable. Usually ... you feel yourself during the day and when it's the evening, it's always a problem. Evening usually is too serious. So now it's very serious, but I tried to make it young and wearable.
Usually my ideas come from what I don't want to do, or what I find is old.
beauty femininity ideas perceived
I am always researching new ideas on beauty and femininity and the way it is perceived in contemporary culture.
beautiful call freedom mixing objects surplus
Basically, the idea is doing beautiful objects that you put together, ... So a lot of freedom -- in fact, we call it surplus because the idea is mixing materials, embroidery, sporty things.
mainly mixed
Lengths are mainly around the knee, but, in the evening, it is really short. So it's mixed up in that way.
love moment start
The moment you start being in love with what you're doing, and thinking it's beautiful or rich, then you're in danger.
helped
When I was younger, shopping helped me discover many new places and many new things.
