More From Manolo Blahnik
- "Some people just use beautiful things to just shop or to have a tribal feeling – ‘Oh, blah, blah, blah, I’m wearing Hermes; blah, blah, blah, I’m wearing Saint Laurent; blah-blah blah’ – because it’s like a need, a tribe, recognition: ‘Ahh, my Rolex.’ But I run away from anything which is too recognizable – it’s my nature."
- "I just don’t get death at all. Yes, it’s there. But I don’t get it."
- "I hate to travel with stuff."
