  • “I didn’t decide one day to develop a speech on street culture: it is part of me, part of my childhood and my adolescence. I grew up in a seaside town in California in the 90s. Street culture was at the heart of children's lives from the age of 7. Rap was the most popular music, surfing and skateboarding had an important place in the lives of children, but also in the lives of their parents. So, you could say that it’s part of my identity. I just come from there.” (en)
  • "I love my friends and I am proud of their work. Matt just loves good product and makes great things. I think Matt and I see beyond fashion. We have wanted to work together for a long time, and this was the perfect moment. For Dior, I wanted the most modern interpretation of the buckle, which is what Matt does best!" (en)
  • “Working with Moncler means a lot of technology applied to luxury fashion. We took those principles and injected our own take, fusing our respective identities.” (en)
  • “I took my first steps as a designer by designing stage costumes, and I first became interested in fashion through the clubbing scene in Los Angeles, going out to the club every night. I like the idea of transforming, of becoming a stage character for one night.” (en)
  • “I named ALYX after our daughter, and everything about this project is very personal. I felt it needed to be that way because, you know, there are so many clothes in the world, so many things that are really just about selling. I felt like doing a project that was committed, in a lifelong project that needed to be personal. Every time I’m thinking about a collection, it’s ’what does it mean to live today’, ‘what is relevant for clothes to be today’, ‘how can these pieces be timeless’, I think that is leading me to what those collections look like, and building on stepping stones that we have led in the past.” (en)
  • “In addition to his commitment to craftsmanship and attention to detail, Williams advocates authentic values of research, technical innovation and creative repurposing that align perfectly with Givenchy’s philosophy of elegant ease. An intuitive understanding of tailoring, technology and integrity in fashion make the designer an ideal steward for carrying the Givenchy legacy forward with modernity and power.” (en)
