Regardless of how good or bad a collection might be, it's a letdown after the show is over. It's done. Something you've worked on for months is just over.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My ideas for the next collection always happen a couple of months before the show. I have learned to shut up and not bother my assistants with it.
A collection makes its own demands. Many artists have been collectors. I think of it rather as an illness. I felt it was using up too much energy.
Collection is an addiction.
I barely finish one pre-collection before I must start on another. Sales start, but I am already elsewhere creatively. The men's show is being prepared, but we also need to think about accessories, perfumes and other items. In sum, I never stop.
A collection is not just one basic idea. It comes from something that is in the air, something you suddenly like and put down on paper and then work out.
Collections aren't really planned. I just keep writing short pieces until I have enough for a collection.
When you start a collection, you have to push yourself to limits that may make you uncomfortable.
Once we start collecting, the more you have, the more it gets valuable and that will stop us from responding to the present and taking on new ideas what the artists are doing now.
There's something in human nature, the trying-to-get-on-with-it quality of people, the struggle to maintain or keep the show going can be exhausting.
When I have a bad show, I can't wait until I can get back on stage to forget about it.
