For So Many Years Fashion Was Shrouded

More From Nina Garcia

But though every created thing is, in this sense, a mystery, the word mystery cannot be applied to moral truth, any more than obscurity can be applied to light. ... mystery is the antagonist of truth. it is a fog of human invention, that obscures truth, and represents it in distortion. truth never envelops itself in mystery, and the mystery in which it is at any time enveloped is the work of its antagonist, and never of itself.

If we're having a glitzy over-the-top moment, fashion is very glitzy and over-the-top, you know, over-the-top. if we're having a moment where things are, you know, we're in a recession, fashion becomes quiet. so, in terms of popular culture, fashion and especially women's fashion is incredibly interesting, aside from satisfying just a particular need to create and arrange things in a way that one sees as beautiful. and so, in a certain way, it's fulfilling. in another way, it's very fleeting because it doesn't last very long. you know, a beautiful moment in fashion goes away very quickly.

[while designing] i'm mixing two lines of thought really: me as a designer for women and then me as a man. at the start of the design process it's the designer for women that comes to the forefront - sketching and revising the silhouette. then the man comes into the picture - and i look at the shoe from a very masculine point of view. then there is a conflict between the two sides of me. sometimes the man wins, and sometimes the designer wins.

The answer is never the answer. what's really interesting is the mystery. if you seek the mystery instead of the answer, you'll always be seeking. i've never seen anybody really find the answer, but they think they have. so they stop thinking. but the job is to seek mystery, evoke mystery, plant a garden in which strange plants grow and mysteries bloom. the need for mystery is greater than the need for an answer.

I think i am beginning to understand why grief feels like suspense. it comes from the frustration of so many impulses that had become habitual. thought after thought feeling after feeling action after action had h. for their object. now their target is gone. i keep on through habit fitting an harrow to the string then i remember and have to lay the bow down. so many roads lead through to h. i set out on one of them. but now there's an impassable frontier-post across it. so many roads once now so many culs de sac.

I find it really frustrating when people go, "i want to be famous and glamorous like you." it's hard for me not to have a bad thought when someone says that to me, since if there's anything this business is not, is glamorous. it's only glamorous for maybe five minutes every now and then.
