How important do you think it is that you’re an outsider?
I don’t really know. I know I was seen as avant-garde. Maybe that’s why I look at it a little more differently. I’m not frozen by it. I make suggestions. My challenge is to find a beautiful balance: to make women beautiful, to make a woman dream to wear a beautiful outfit. The show was about beauty in a natural way. It was very freeing; it offered a lot of possibilities. That’s why I didn’t want it story-based. Think of it as a blueprint.

Congrats to RAF… the punks, the avant garde, as we grow older, yes it is nice to find understanding and people willing to listen in the institutions; it is a new era of collaborations and a blue print is a nice way to start again. We are all finding a new balance to keep ourselves challenged and discovering, rediscovering new beauty.
