“We can use our art to become political, to become something you want to talk about. We make clothes, but we have the chance to change a generation as well. We have to remember that fashion changed the roles of men and women: When Yves Saint Laurent was putting pants on a woman, he was not only doing that - he was assuming the fact that a woman can wear pants like a man. It's all the codes that I think fashion pushed so much to change the world, and today it's what I'm trying to do in my own way.” ThinkingMenWorldTryingArtTodayRememberPoliticalChanceFashionChangedMen And WomenAssumingSaintCodeChanging The World Author:Olivier Rousteing
“I'm always trying to understand who I want to be, what I want, what I dream of. When I was a kid, I was really worried that my parents were going to bring me back to the orphanage. I was scared of tomorrow, scared that I was going to be abandoned again. So I tried to enjoy every minute of my life because maybe tomorrow wasn't going to happen. I think I live the same way today: scared of tomorrow. For someone who is considered a party boy, a guy who just has fun and drinks champagne, I'm really tortured.” ThinkingTryingDreamKidsTodayGuyFunParentEnjoyPartyBoysTomorrowDrinkScaredWorriedHaving FunAbandonedOrphanage Author:Olivier Rousteing
“When you build a big empire, you become the persona that people think they know. So when you try to show them who you are, to help them discover you, they just want what they think they know about you. I would have been smarter to build some relationships when I was younger, a private love or something. Today it is more difficult. But it's the price to pay. I never regret anything, because every choice I made for a reason, but I'd love personal love.” PeopleThinkingTryingReasonHelpingTodayChoicesDifficultRegretWho You AreOver YouPersonaNever RegretNever Regret Anything Author:Olivier Rousteing
“It's tricky because Instagram is not Grindr. I'm always trying to show my good side. I never complain. When I have a moment of sadness, I make sure no one ever sees. And while I'm so good at talking to friends or talking about my job, if you were to ask me to dinner - just the two of us, in a romantic way - I would be the worst. I'm so shy I would not talk.” TryingMomentsSadnessWorstComplainingAsk MeShyTricky Author:Olivier Rousteing
