I think it's very important what young people see in pictures or on TV or in magazines. Drugs, violence, anorexia. All of the things that I absolutely do not reference in my photos.Collection: Thinking
I don't have prejudices. I'm against taboos. But of course there are some things I'll never touch - because as a mom, there are things one doesn't want their children to be around.Collection: Mom
When I was a child, my mother always told me that you could wake up in the middle of the night and be deathly sick, so you always have to be impeccable. I laugh about it now, but I think everyone should go to bed like they have a date at the door.Collection: Mother
I see things in the middle of the night. I draw them on paper and I don't even think about it. I'm like a machine in a way - just made of some electronic stuff. Vaguely digital.Collection: Thinking
I like the present and tomorrowCollection: Tomorrow
Never use the word “cheap”. Today everybody can look chic in inexpensive clothes (the rich buy them too). There is good clothing design on every level today. You can be the chicest thing in the world in a T-shirt and jeans — it’s up to you.Collection: Fashion

I do my job like I breathe — so if I can’t breathe I’m in trouble.Collection: Jobs
People who do a job that claims to be creative have to be alone to recharge their batteries. You can’t live 24 hours a day in the spotlight and remain creative. For people like me, solitude is a victory.Collection: Jobs
Beauty—or the desire to be beautiful—is in itself a dangerous motivation. Someone (I forgot who) once said, ‘Does the person who loves someone for their beauty really love them?’ So don’t focus on beauty ... a respectable appearance is sufficient to make people more interested in your soul.

It can even be necessary.Collection: Beautiful
Beauty with character ages better than perfection.Collection: Character

Seduction is, first and foremost, an art form. And seduction should not always be treated as a wild celebration. In fact, it’s more of an evocation of what you do. It’s more an evocation of seduction.Collection: Firsts
I make such big efforts to forget things and I can’t tell the story of my life because, thank God, I’m still living it.Collection: Stories
Don’t overact the story of your name. Overact the story of your work.Collection: Stories
I’m rather pro-prostitution, I admire people who do it. It can’t be much fun. Thank goodness for it. People need relief or they become murderers.Collection: Fun
