giving feminist causes
Madonna is a feminist and has been doing more for the cause than all the grumpy feminists, who are giving nothing back by being grumpy.
heart conflict boring
I don't like conflicts. I'm not a competitive person at heart. To be in the middle of turmoil is boring.
fashion high-heels care
There is a heel that is too high to walk in, certainly. But who cares? You don't have to walk in high heels.
way use sensitive
To me, the word 'decadent' is so difficult to use; it's a very sensitive word, in a way.
men dedicated core
The core of my work is dedicated not to pleasing women, but to pleasing men.
character men shoes
Shoes for men are about elegance or wealth, they are not playing with the inner character. That is why women are happy to wear painful shoes.
men talking shoes
I'll do shoes for the lady who lunches, but it would be, like, a really nasty lunch, talking about men.
paris trying impossible
In Paris, I really do like to try and do nothing... but that's impossible.
thinking years faithful
I remain faithful to bourbon sour. It's absolutely delicious. You'd have to ask a bartender what's in it, but I think if you know you might never have a drink. I also love a little rum, 7 years aged, brown, when it is chilly, before dinner.
shoes trying naked
I like to undress women - not to dress them. You know, like Manet's 'Olympia' or Helmut Newton's photographs - naked women with shoes. This is what I am trying to do.
beautiful hate believe
I would hate for someone to look at my shoe and say, 'Oh my God! That looks so comfortable!' That's not what I want to project. But I'm not a sadist. I don't believe suffering makes you beautiful. But comfort is not part of my creative process.
fashion thinking giving
I'm a designer, and I think if you work in fashion, you have to give people fantasy.
children design today
Even today, I am still very child-like while designing. It's a bit like Christmas - each of your designs you create is like unravelling your presents.
one-line lines proportion
Beauty is all about form; proportions and the relationships between one line and another.
