Zitat des Tages von Ann Demeulemeester:
Fashion is silly. Perhaps I should say fashion in general is silly. But then everything is, in general. If you talk about music in general, it's silly; about magazines, in general, they're silly.
Good fashion is like rock music: all anarchy and revolt.
I need human feelings to fit garments. I couldn't do it just, like, on an object - it's too close to our body. It's like a skin you are making, so you need one's feelings to make a garment.
I don't look at other people's work because I don't want to be distracted by their ideas.
I can make 10 jackets of the same colour, same two pockets and same length, that will look like 10 completely different jackets when you put them on. It's about the way they are cut - it makes them look and feel completely different and move differently, and that's a never-ending study. People who wear my clothes will know exactly what I mean.
Jewelry is something that has to do with emotion. That aspect of jewelry really interests me.
Ann Demeulemeester is an adult brand now, with its own identity and legacy that is able to continue growing without me.
The future is open, and I never make plans. As long as it's interesting to me, I try to live my life to the fullest.
I've always done things my way.
I'm not confused about what's happening in fashion, because I follow my own direction and go.
I am just a Flemish girl with her feet on the ground.
As a young girl, I dreamed of having a voice in fashion.
I always followed my own path.
I became a fashion designer by accident. I loved to make portrait drawings when I was a teenager, and from that came the interest in what people were wearing and why they were wearing it.
