Coincidence is important, the convergence of different ideas.

I like it when you have something happening by coincidence. Just something in a book is enough. But I prefer a fragment of an image so you are far more free to bring in elements of your own.

Various different people have inspired me throughout my career. From Francis Bacon to Vassareli, Coco Chanel to Christian Dior, Cecil Beaton, musicians, architects... the list is endless.

Clothes is just something you put on to cover yourself... fashion is a way to communicate.

I'm known for color and prints and embroideries.

For me, restrictions are not always negative. Restrictions can push creativity. I like restrictions.
