Alessandro Michele

All of us, we are not one thing: we're always between two worlds, and the idea of not being sure is very appealing to me. ”

For me, fashion is something that makes you feel alive, that expresses something of you: if you are sad, if you are happy. ”

I am obsessed with fashion, like my mother, and I am obsessed with art, like my father. ”

Sometimes when people talk about me in fashion, I feel - I don't want to say uncomfortable, but I still don't believe that I'm in 'fashion.' ”

The idea of my fashion shows is that you can't understand where you are; it's something surreal. ”

My mum was obsessed with dress... so, in my house, there was always the obsession about aesthetics. She was obsessed with the idea that a beautiful movie is the one where you're so involved you won't go to the toilet during it, or you'll fall asleep with your make-up on after. ”

I'm very curious. I feel more comfortable surrounded by people not like me. ”

To be against something or someone, it's a dangerous thing. ”

Luxury means that you show the way you dress with eccentricity. ”

You have to be open to dreaming. It's a complicated language, but I'm obsessed with it. ”
