It may sound stupid, but I have always loved those water lilies.
artistic collection concept genesis maybe
Personally, I have had sometimes moments where I thought my idea behind the idea of a collection - the concept maybe - something that we don't see at the end on the catwalk, I think the way it was, the genesis in my mind, was probably artistic, an artistic approach.
attached freedom kept preserve
I always like to preserve my freedom. I've never really been attached to any place; that's probably why I kept moving. I like to evolve.
collecting collection flea knew markets sheets time
My first collection was made from sheets that my grandmother, who lived in Normandy, had been collecting for a long time. There are a lot of flea markets in that part of France, and she knew what I liked.
change changed girls heard intrigued jealous last moment princesses realized tormented ugly until wear
When I was very young, I wanted to be a girl. I was jealous that girls got to be princesses and wear skirts. It tormented me. When I was 6, I even heard that you could change your sex, and I was very intrigued until the moment I realized that if I changed into a girl, I would be an ugly girl, and this is the last thing I wanted to be.

A black dress is beautiful! It's a good choice. It could be the wrong choice at certain events or situations, but it's very rare that you see a girl who looks bad in a black dress.

beauty bee clothes design dress ease good somebody wear
Bee is really able to wear the clothes. She has a very good sense of the design and feel of the clothes. She has a neo-classical beauty and is very charismatic. Personality is so important - when you dress somebody for a big party, it is good to feel that the person has an ease and naturalness with what she is wearing.
school feelings losing
I really hated school. I had the feeling I was losing a lot of time.
fashion thinking long
For a long time I have been thinking about affordable fashion - you can be disappointed when not so many people can wear your stuff.
eye light rose
Our eyes reflect light. Better that the lips are more like a rose petal.
people design way
The aim of being a good designer is to have an influence. If you design furniture or lifestyle, you should influence the way people evolve globally. It's good to have an influence.
girl believe important
I haven't made many wedding dresses. It's a dress very, very important for the girl; it's important to know the person, I believe, but at the same time it should be a shock to the person - the person should be shocked to be suddenly revealed. That's the work of a designer sometimes, to propose an ID of look.
