I didn't like the '80s at all; it was a vulgar moment of fashion.

Even as a young boy, my passion was to design, and I have been very lucky to be able to do what I have loved all my life. There can be few greater gifts than that.

I was lucky. My father raced bikes. He gave me the passion very early. I had my first bike when I was three or four years old.

I am especially grateful that I have been able to keep my own style over the decades, in spite of the many changes that have taken place in the world of fashion and in its business.

The great fights with your strongest rivals are always the biggest motivation. When you win easily it's not the same taste.

I am like a freight train. Working on the details, twisting them and playing with them over the years, but always staying on the same track.
