In Paris, we call the people who make clothing 'couturiers' - they develop new clothing items - but actually, the work of designing is to make something that works in real life.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I became a fashion designer to make clothes for the people, not to be a top couturier in the French tradition.
I watch a TV show called 'Shark Tank.' It's one of my favorite TV shows. It's basically self-made millionaires who have either come up with their own business or clothing... I came up with the idea of designing clothes.
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.
I was always interested in making clothing that is worn by people in the real world.
In designing a lifestyle brand, you have to know more than just designing clothes.
As a designer, you have to solve a lot of problems. Even though people are wearing clothes that are supposed to look beautiful, they'll have to do all kinds of things.
I don't design clothes, I design dreams.
I'm a designer of more than clothes. I am a designer of a very creative concept.
It's often said that costume designers are a faceless group of people. But we can contribute to fashion in a way that might be new and different.
The ultimate art form of fashion is couture. I completely geek out when it comes to couture. It shows fashion as it used to be. I don't know how many people can actually afford the clothes, but in a way, that's beside the point.
