Design can never be an ultimate explanation for anything. It can only be a proximate explanation. A plane or a car is explained by a designer but that's because the designer himself the engineer is explained by natural selection.
Car designers are just going to have to come up with an automobile that outlasts the payments.
Great designers seldom make great advertising men because they get overcome by the beauty of the picture - and forget that merchandise must be sold.
Design is about point of view and there should be some sort of woman or lifestyle or attitude in one's head as a designer.
As a designer the mission with which we have been charged is simple: providing space at the right cost.
It's amazing to see things that are suggested in the book fully developed and so brilliantly realized through the artistry of the designers.
My favorite designer is Christian Lacroix not just because his clothes are amazing and I love them but because he's so nice. When I did his fashion show he was the first one to arrive there and he helped everyone.
I always wanted to be a designer. I read books on fashion from the age of 12.
