Yoko Ono quotes
Every moment in our lives is a miracle we should enjoy instead of ignoring.
Every moment in our lives is a miracle we should enjoy instead of ignoring.
We are all dreamers creating the next world, the next beautiful world for ourselves and for our children.
Some people think that movements, such as the movements in ballet, are a higher cultural expression, whereas some are just dirt. I think it is elitist to think that a trained movement is more acceptable than untrained and possibly unrehearsed movements.
Fashion sighs after trends. I want timeless elegance. Fashion has no time. I do. I say: Hello Lady, how can I help you? Fashion has no time to even ask such a question, because it is constantly concerned with finding out: What will come next? It is more about helping women to suffer less, to attain more freedom and independence.
It meant something to me – the idea of a coat guarding and hiding a woman’s body. For me, a woman who is absorbed in her work, who does not care about gaining one’s favor, strong yet subtle at the same time, is essentially more seductive. The more she hides and abandons her femininity, the more it emerges from the very heart of her existence.
I exist here, now. I'm not much interested in the future. Or, more precisely put, I do not believe in the future. To exaggerate a little, I have no faith that I will still exist tomorrow or the day after. What is more, I absolutely detest retrospection. That dislike is balances only by my desire to make my way back home as quickly as possible.
I have no imagination about holidays, vacations, or retiring life. I can't imagine about those things.

My role in all of this is very simple. I make clothing like armor. My clothing protects you from unwelcome eyes.
Men's clothing is more pure in design. It's more simple and has no decoration. Women want that. When I started designing, I wanted to make men's clothes for women. But there were no buyers for it. Now there are. I always wonder who decided that there should be a difference in the clothes of men and women. Perhaps men decided this.
Just listen to the material. What is it going to say? Just wait. Probably the material will tell you something.
I'm going to create a very strong scent which can kill a boy!
I want to achieve anti-fashion through fashion. That's why I'm always heading in my own direction, in parallel to fashion.
I believe that there are three conditions to a woman’s beauty. First, you must realize that not all women are beautiful all of the time. Sometimes beauty comes on a subconscious level. When she is in love, or has met someone new and exciting, she shines. Second, you must understand that life is unfair. Beauty is something that, for some, must be worked at. The third condition is luck. Some women can just be lucky.
I only see the faults, flaws, the imperfections. That attracts me.
Adidas is a very personal inspiration to me. It has enriched my creative life. It's an exchange between different cultures, different ideas, and most of all, it is teamwork.
The best moments in my life are just before going to bed. Those are my happiest moments.
Fashion cannot make you sexy. Experience makes you sexy. Imagination makes people sexy. You have to train yourself, you have to study, and you have to live your life.
A pair of brilliantly cut cotton trousers can be more beautiful than a gorgeous silk gown.
