Very skinny women don't look beautiful in clothes.

I'd experienced the '40s and '50s by looking at my grandparents' old clothes, books, and magazines.

We all look for lost time.

If you look back at the history of creativity in clothes - the French Revolution, the First World War and the Second World War - they have all been creative reinventions, the moment new forms of luxury come into play.

I look for friends who make me laugh.

The notion of time bothers me. You look at thirty-year-old photographs and realize how the time has passed.
