“I think it’s totally important for all of us in the American fashion industry to support the young designers, and I think that’s why New York’s become such a vibrant fashion center, because people go there not only to see the Donna Karans of the world but a whole new generation. I’m just so sorry that there isn’t something like that in Paris that’s similar. I think that they should look for the younger generation here [in Paris] as well. Not only New York but London really supports their young talent; Franca Sozzani at Italian Vogue supports the young Italian designers, and I think when France is so known for its fashion industry — for them not to be reaching out to help younger people today is really a shame.”
