Without foundation, there can be no fashion.

Elegance must be the right combination of distinction, naturalness, care and simplicity. Outside this, believe me, there is no elegance. Only pretension.

Individuality will always be one of the conditions of real elegance

Who I am on stage is just an amped up version of who I am in real life.
