Going out in Paris was like going out in the '30s dressed like the Andrews Sisters. It was everything I'd seen in books at my grandparents' house, only it was our generation.

French design hardly exists, except as artificial modernism.

I'd experienced the '40s and '50s by looking at my grandparents' old clothes, books, and magazines

They say that the best furniture and clothing design from the '50s and '60s is Scandinavian or Milanese.

For me, I am still very happy to be able to do stage design as it's an opportunity to express the extreme.

With the development of the Christian Lacroix house in Paris and my work notably for the theater, it wasn't serious doing things by half.

That was the idea behind glam clubs like Seven and The New Eve. You could eat and dance to live music. To enter you had to descend a grand staircase.

I translated Beatles songs for my English class.

Perhaps I shouldn't have been influenced by the idea that my name could be spread across the entire world.

I never loved the world around me as it was.

The exchange by e-mail is more intimate than conversation - you allow yourself to say things you otherwise wouldn't.

We all look for lost time.

There's always some kind of hidden logic.

I am still in love with couture because it is just two months from drawing pad to runway so everything on the catwalk is hot from the oven.
