Jeans represent democracy in fashion.
It is difficult to talk about fashion in the abstract, without the human,body before my eyes, without drawing, without a choice of fabric -,without a practical or visual reality.
Without insecurities, I think one becomes a little bit of an idiot.
I must always try to do better. Because perfectionism, and the need to,always have new goals and achieve them, is a state of mind that brings,profound meaning to life.
Never in my wildest dreams did I entertain the idea that I would become a fashion designer.
I believe that my clothes can give people a better image of themselves - that it can increase their feelings of confidence and happiness.
I design for real people. I think of our customers all the time. There is no virtue whatsoever in creating clothing or accessories that are not practical. .
