Life is full of challenges and surprises.
From Jil Sander
We look our best in subdued colors, sophisticated cuts, and a general air of sleek understatement.
I think there is always a need for pure design. With pure design, you don't need so much decoration.
One glass of water doesn't equal another. One may just appease the thirst, the other you may enjoy thoroughly. In Japan, people know about this difference.
I am convinced that there can be luxury in simplicity.
The apparent pointlessness of fashion may be just what makes it so strong as a zeitgeist sensor. Even I, a designer, do not know why a certain proportion feels dated or why another one feels exciting at a given moment. I leave that to the cultural historians and theorists.
If you cut a painter's hands off, he'd still feel the urge to pick up a brush.
Initially, it was the unpractical in fashion that brought me to design my own line. I felt that it was much more attractive to cut clothes with respect for the living, three-dimensional body rather than to cover the body with decorative ideas.
My approach has always been rather sensual.
I sometimes feel that a pattern is almost a fashion statement in itself.
