focusing, coming in Paris, was just opening tiny shop, but there happened something,
because I was not only one, the other designer, one more designer, did something.
So, for European people, it was like a new movement arrived or a new army arrived.
I think they are accepted in that way. So, I didn't mean it, I just wanted to open tiny shop.
I'm strongly breathing in cross-smanship. I mean, humans' hands, for example,
when there's Japanese cross-smanship, for weaving, for sewing, for cutting, maybe I'm touching
a little bit, a culture of human beings, human fingers, which I believe in strongly.
Mentary, I'm very far from mass production. So, meaning of American success, I'm not very successful
designer. In America, success means fame and money. I think myself may be famous in Europe,
but money, I don't know. For me, comfortable profit is enough to keep on going.
Designing men's clothing is very difficult for me, because I don't like too much fashionable men.
Do you like fashionable men? Very trendy, perfect fashion. I think my role about men's design
is that it's easy from trend. And the customer of my men's creation, they are not wearing tie.
Not businessmen. Almost they are working as a free, in that case, they can look
a little strange and funny. Designing men's is quite limited because we have only shirts and
jacket and pants, that's it. So, we have to put some irony or joke or funny message, but for women,
women's body is, for me, like desert and brewing the wind and the mountains of sand is always changing.
So, I can have so many imagination on women's body, because it is always changing.
Compared to women's body, men's body is already promised. We can only change sizes or length
with it, that's it. But designing women's clothing is like a journey. And I think that being
a strong designer for women's designer is more important than being a strong designer for men.
Historically, I think the reason is that designing clothing for women will have more room.
Everything is possible. Sometimes I feel too free. It's very hard. I have still people who understand
my thinking and buy my clothing. And I have to answer to them. And same time,
if I say this, this sounds maybe too arrogant, but let me say beautiful things are disappearing every day.
I want to keep it back. I want to say don't go too much, too far, too easy. Take it easy.
I think this is my role. I think it's like thinking about the earth. Go to hell. We can't stop.
Do you think we can stop? I don't think so. Very roughly, if we choose to
big responsibilities. One side is our government. They can change the way of going
of people. And one side is artist. They can also change. Or they can also make people think,
make people doubt what's going on. Like a very old man, I'm saying that beautiful things
disappearing every day. Look at them. Keep it them. Be careful. Don't go too fast. Look back.
What is gorgeous for you? When I answer, I don't like too much about the property,
like a big house, private jet, big castle. I'm not interested in them at all. My most gorgeous
moment is creating, growing. So in that meaning, I'm very lucky and a happy man.
