You’re iconic as a French designer. Why put the American flag dress on the cover?
When I chose to do the book, it was one year ago, and this image, I did it a long time ago. This dress was created 8 years ago, but it was a dress that really put me on stage, and I wanted to celebrate this first step in America. And of course for me, it became quite literally a black woman wearing an American flag dress, and for me it became a little bit of an homage to Michelle Obama.

ReplyDeleteamerican flags for attire besides glittery headwear on bingo night for senior citizens can only be good for the country
ReplyDeleteBrian, but I wonder if she were equally spry. I think that would affect whether she would wear this, as well.
