Maybe I am not French, maybe I am from nowhere.

I'm 50% Asian actually, so yes I was born in Paris but I feel more international than French so I can't talk about French women.

I definitely want to work on a project with young designers, not just French but international.

I became a fashion designer to make clothes for the people, not to be a top couturier in the French tradition.

I think there is a problem in France that anyone who is not European, you want to know where they come from and why do they come from somewhere or why they speak English or why they are human. That's the big barrier for all of us that are coming from some far, far away countries. But at the end of the day, we are all artists.

I am typically French.

I was born in France. I grew up in Africa.

I am Parisian. I don't love the French.

But I don't think of myself as a foreigner or a Frenchman! I just think of myself as a director. Whether I'm French or Australian or whatever, it's really not important.
