The French have got taste.

You have to adjust to where you are but the French are all together - the guys and the women. It's good.

I grew up in France, my first language was French, and I tend to gravitate towards French cooking.

I'm always fetishizing the French woman and French taste and style. My assistant will make fun of me because every time we're picking the direction of a collection, I say the same thing: 'I want it to be really French.'

I'm quite into the French way - simple elegance with just a suggestion of sexiness, nothing vulgar.

I am typically French.

I've never gone for the smooth, suave Latin or French lover. That usually makes me think they're trying to pull one over on me.

Accents are very sexy. American girls who speak French are very attractive to a Frenchman. Anything exotic or different is attractive.

I've been learning French a bit through my work with Longchamp, and I've been in France quite a lot. And I really love how they express themselves. I especially love when something is untranslatable.

I speak French fluently, so that really helped.
