I've spent some time working with a non-Italian designer; I've been helping him organize fashion shows, the advertising, also helping with the creative part. But the great part about this work is that I am no one!
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I love Italian fashion - the sense of style that Italians have as part of their DNA. Nobody is like them.
I have always worked a bit with fashion people. I worked with Issey Miyake for a while, then Dolce & Gabbana; now we're working with Valentino. It's fine. The fashion world is a fairly weird world, but there are good people in it. It's weird because their timetables are unbearable.
But I'm blessed to work with great people. I collaborate with brilliant stylists both here and in Paris. I work with a great design team. I really allow everyone to bring their ideas. I almost rely on them to inspire me.
When it comes to my style, I'm a proper Italian woman of the modern age!
Italians are fantastic people, really. They can work you over in an alley while singing an opera.
I'm not a fashionista, definitely. I'm an actress. I have a great team working with me.
No, I'm not a French designer either. I'm from nowhere. I'm a European, old European is all I am.
I have worked with some of the most amazing costume designers in the world.
I can design a collection in a day and I always do, cause I've always got a load of Italians on my back, moaning that it's late.
I'm a designer, I love it, and I haven't worked this hard to do bad work.
