For me, difference is beautiful, there is not only one…
“For me, difference is beautiful, there is not only one beauty, and in a collection I always like to show mixed directions. When you look at people or things, there are all these codes and standards that come into play around what is considered ugly or beautiful, and I've always questioned that. When you're a kid, you're not conditioned, you don't see perversity, there's a state of innocence where everything is beautiful, you see differently…I am lucky because I am doing now what I dreamt of doing as a child, and I like to think that I've retained a childlike state of mind.”
