I Am More Feminist Than Feminists.

Being On A Trapeze Is Like Dreaming. I Feel Totally Outside Of Myself When I'm Flying. You Know, Designing Shoes, My Imagination Is Flying In My Drawings.

A Woman Can Carry A Bag, But It Is The Shoe That Carries The Woman.

I Was Born In Paris In The Mid-1960s, And By The Time I Was 12 I Had Started Going To The Movies By Myself. Most Of The Movies Of That Period Never Appealed To Me. I Didn't Like The 'naturalism,' The Sad Or The 'down-to-earth' Characters. What I Wanted From Film Was Fantasy, Dreams, Funny Situations, Extravagant Decor - And Beautiful Women.

I Have No Problem With The Idea Of Comfort, But It Is Not An Important Thing Aesthetically. If You Look At A Shoe And Immediately Say It Looks Very Comfortable, In Terms Of Design, It Is Not Going To Excite Me. Of Course, I Am Not Putting Nails In My Shoes To Ensure Everybody Is In Pain, But A Heel Is Not A Pair Of Slippers And Never Will Be.

Something I Really Hate More Than Anything Else Is Clogs.
