“I become quite obsessive when I get into something.”

My aim is to create the perfect dress!

I have no intention of ever working with the (Spice) girls again.

It’s such an old-fashioned attitude to make people feel like they’re not good enough for your clothes. That’s so negative and so old-fashioned and wrong.

I appreciate that young girls look up to me. And I take that very seriously.

Just as I love women, I love gay men. I always say it: inside me there is a gay man who wants to come out.

Red is a strong, happy, optimistic color, and I like having fun with it, you know? Like, when colors clash – I love that strangeness.

I want to reach as many women throughout the world as I can.

I don’t believe anyone who says they don’t care what people say about them. Of course they bloody well do.

I can’t concentrate in flats.

I’m not worried about what’s in fashion, what’s not in fashion, what are the colors of the season. I go with my gut instinct because every time I haven’t it’s been a mistake.

The tusk is a very tactile shape, looks great among the other charms and is a cool piece that I like.

I don’t follow fashion and I don’t follow trends, I just follow my instincts.

I’ve been that celebrity on the red carpet, and I appreciate that something hasn’t got to just look good from the front, from the back, it’s got to look good at all angles.

I don’t know much about football. I know what a goal is, which is surely the main thing about football.

I used to feel famous, but now I feel successful.

If you can get your head around your dream it means your dream isn’t big enough.

I probably do have an obsessive personality, but striving for perfection has served me well

I remember being obsessed with Christina Aguilera’s ‘Stripped.’ That was her peak, and she is such an amazing singer. Plus, I was a little gay boy, and the music video for ‘Beautiful’ existed, so obviously I was affected.

I probably do have an obsessive personality, but striving for perfection has served me well

If a poet is anybody, he is somebody to whom things made matter very little – somebody who is obsessed by Making.

You ready? I have gold teeth, I have braids, I’m wearing Rick Owens moon boots, I have rips in my denim, a biker vest, I love artsy girls, my favourite artists are Jimi Hendrix and John Lennon. I’m obsessed with being different.

I’ve never just been able to be alone, and I’m obsessed with being alone and hearing my thoughts. I’m trying to take this alone time — the five minutes I do have a day — to learn as much as I can.

Being an artist is this kind of occupation in which you have to make people care about your obsession.

A passionate obsession with the outside world or the private lives of others is an attempt to compensate for a lack of meaning in one’s own life.
