Suzy at 20

I love the job!

I m passionate about fashion, I adore it.

I always have done, from the time that I came as a

student to Paris, and I can t change that in myself.

I love it and I hope I exude that kind of passion.

[Valli] The moment that Susie put the highs

around your style, around your message,

I mean it s the moment that you are really established.

It s like a blessing.

[Italo] She has integrity.

When somebody has integrity

and really write what she thinks,

it makes you think.

This helps us evolve and think in different ways,

and be inspired.

[Dries] She s not always been kind,

and that s what I appreciate.

She been a little bit like the mother of young designers,

saying good things stimulating,

or also when it s necessary punishing.

Sometimes she wrote to make me up, sometimes down,

but she has been all the time, strictly frank.

Professional.

I don t have a mission say something about fashion

or to do something.

I like to try and look at fashion as a mirror of society

and try and see what s coming, what s happening.

I think Susie is a great woman.

I think she always did a great job.

She is a very intelligent writer,

and I think that every fashion designer

needs to be and has to be a huge respect of her.

I would never presume to say that I was giving

anyone constructive criticism.

I m doing an analysis and if people who read that

find it interesting fine,

but I don t feel didactic at all.

There are many times when I feel that maybe if people

did the opposite of what I said,

they d probably be very good results.
