In the early '50s, it was still the time of Christian Dior's New Look. Every dress was big and important, and I thought I must do something completely different. Women needed something for daytime that was wearable.
As time passes, we like to simplify our lives.
To have lived your dream is very rare in life. I am a very happy man. I have been so fortunate.
Balenciaga was my religion. Since I'm a believer, for me, there's Balenciaga, and the good Lord.
I love to dance, and I love to see people dance. It is good exercise. It gives you a kind of energy.
Each of my garments is something special in itself. You give all your energy to each piece, to each creation, and I have no favourite. I love all of them equally.
