A magazine is not just one person. And a fashion shoot is the same!

When you have the baby, there is no BlackBerry, no computer; you just have the baby on your stomach, and your heart is beating the same time as the baby's. It's very nice.

Blogs are quite a new development - now, everyone wants to know you, everyone wants to know everything about you. And you can build a following that way. In a way, it's a good thing if you want to create a buzz around yourself.

I hate mules. I hate the noise when someone walks with mules. Clomp, clomp, clomp. I think it's very not chic. I don't even like a flip-flop. I don't like this noise.

I mix talents and friendship, which is not very professional, but it's my way of thinking. So I love Azzedine Alaia, because I've known him for 30 years, and he's making my dresses most of the time.

I always love to push myself, because I am not so self-confident.

It is very wrong to sleep in your make-up, but when you wake up the next morning, I think it looks very good.

When you're getting old, obviously you try to put on the best cream, you have massages, you try to stay beautiful, but I think wrinkles can sometimes be more beautiful than having none.

I think beauty can be everywhere.

I am very excited to be able to work more with young designers and support them.

I think that ballet is very good for the body. It's very similar to yoga, because you have to hold a position.

Fashion is very tough, and we shouldn't forget that before designers were money-makers, they were artists.

I'm not a business girl. I will never be a business girl, but I will say, for Anna Wintour, that I respect successful people; I like things that are success.

'Vogue' is a very specific world. You are 'Vogue,' or not 'Vogue.'
Carine Roitfeld -
Fashion is not about clothes, it is about a look.
Carine Roitfeld -
I am not a celebrity. I work with celebrities, and it is very difficult. When a celebrity wears a dress, it's good for business, so brands fight for the red carpet. Me? I don't like it, because fashion becomes a job about dressing celebrities. And it's a bit boring.
Carine Roitfeld -
The fashion industry certainly has its obscene sides. The cost of a coat can be obscene. So can the cost of a photo shoot if you're working with a really good photographer.

I love the noise of my wooden clogs on my wooden floor. Dancers wear clogs. They're good for you.

I think that each woman, whatever age, needs to recognize something good in her body. Someone has beautiful legs, someone has beautiful hair, someone else has beautiful decolletage or a beautiful waist or beautiful hands. Everyone has something great.
