I am always locked in my design studio.

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.

I am happy that thousands of students, young designers and fashion people will be able to see and study my work in every aspect of it.

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.

I race to win. If I am on the bike or in a car it will always be the same.

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.
