Bigs Quote by Riccardo Tisci

“When I was young, especially when I was at school, I thought couture was about big gowns, big hats (that is couture as well, of course) - but my couture is about going near the clothes and having a look at the details. I like people to have a shock in a chic way.” quote by Riccardo Tisci — Download Open image
