At the start of the design process it's the designer for women that comes to the forefront - sketching and revising the silhouette.

Sometimes the man wins, and sometimes the designer wins.

Really good shoes have to seduce both men and women.

The core of my work is dedicated not to pleasing women, but to pleasing men.
