Oh Roberto. The UK Times sat with the designer on his boat and he gave them a mouthful on his socio-political views in the newly established world power, China. Nah, joking, he basically bitched about Madonna, Kate Moss and not being gay. Our favorite naughty bits below…
On slutty dressers: “There is a real vulgarity in the way women dress at the moment. They show off too much and try too hard. They don’t understand where the line is between sexy and vulgar. I know where that line is.”
On the wrong nationalities wearing his goodies: “It happens a lot with women of a certain nationality – I’m sure you can imagine which – and you just want to say ‘Give it back!’?”
On Kate Moss: “Kate Moss’s collection was badly made, stupid and bland; you see things like that everywhere. You can’t just buy things for the label – it’s ridiculous.”
On Celebrity Designers: “I’m very much against all these celebrities doing diffusion lines. Do I suddenly get up in the morning and say that I am going to start a singing career, with the horrible voice that I have? That’s what these girls do when they show the world how horrible their fashion ranges are.”
On Madonna: “She is not nice with anyone: she doesn’t know how to be nice.”
On Man Love: “I detest men – dressed or naked – but women…”
On Woman Love: “Women shouldn’t dress in black, and I can’t bear all these women swearing: a woman’s mouth should always be clean.”
On Showing How Corny He Really Is (as if the excessive animal skins weren’t enough): Then, pulling me into his perfumed chest and throwing out his arms out in the manner of Leonardo DiCaprio in Titanic, he bellows: “I’m the king of the world!”
