Hindu sages say that you should concentrate while eating. But, we don't have time anymore. Fast food is not quick enough for me. I would like super-fast food in the form of pills.

I have always tried to sublimate the body and to make people dream.
I survived on sandwiches, and I was on stage every night for six years of my life. I was working 16 hours a day between class, rehearsal, being on stage.
The reason I quit fashion was that I had had enough of spending my time always being on my knees, making other people look amazing and fabulous.
I am not trendy. I am not 'in fashion.' I am simply a positive human being who has a positive outlook on life.
I realised I was living in my own universe with lots of assistants. I didn't have a cell phone; I didn't know how to use a computer. Everybody was doing everything for me. So I left and moved to New York. It was the end of an era, and I must say I found myself a bit lost. I wasn't in the protected Mugler universe any more.
The potential of your body is endless.
I want my models to be bigger, stronger and taller than common mortals. I need superwomen and supermen.
You're working with models who are looking at their watch, and it didn't work for me. I wanted to have relationships with amazing people.
I used fashion to express myself as much as I could. But at some point, it was not enough.
