Испанцы считают, что в их стране было два гения: Сальвадор Дали и Пако Рабанн. Кутюрье рассказал нашему журналу о своем творчестве помимо создания одежды и поделился взглядом на современную моду.

In 2000, I left the haute couture, ashaute couture no longer exists. She died. Show me the woman, an idiot who is prepared to spend money on a dress, enough to buy a car. Fashion haute couture has been created for true aristocrats - those now gone

When I started doing high fashion in 1965, we had 36 couturier. Today there are only seven. And even these seven are unable to sell all that they create.

We were on the threshold of the era of fashion vulgarization,When everything is done for a large number of people. The world has changed completely. And this, of course, impact on fashion. Haute couture of Paris - it's such a toothless old woman who glosses over their wrinkles to look young girl, but as soon as she opens her mouth and smiles, all that plaster falls.

Большое значение сейчас имеет прет-а-порте. Серьезно наступает Китай, продавая уже не миллионы, а миллиарды предметов одежды. И с этим никак нельзя бороться. Раньше тоже существовала конкуренция: LVHM, ZARA, GAP, но уже тогда было тяжело противостоять. Я делал одежду для мужчин, но это производство пришлось остановить, потому что на рынок вышла ZARA с идентичными моделями, но в 3 раза дешевле. Их стилисты полностью копировали коллекции после показа и через неделю выпускали их в продажу. Но сегодня западные компании сталкиваются с серьезными проблемами, потому что китайцы их опережают. Наполеон Бонапарт сказал, что горе тогда придет, когда Китай проснется. И вот Китай проснулся.

No, I do not think that I left becausedisillusioned with modern fashion! Those who invested in my projects related to fashion, say that I was out of date for this world, so my status now - artistic consultant in his own house. And it allowed me to return to my former hobbies - drawing, design, furniture and household items. I just signed a contract to build toys for children. They will be sold in Europe. Finally, I am writing my ninth book. Unfortunately, I do not have time to implement all the projects that are born in my head.

I am now 81 years old, when I was 60 years old,I had a desire to write about everything that I did. In total I have written 8 books, the last out this year, it is called »Ariadne's thread». The first was called »The Way» and it came out in 8 languages, but for some reason has not been translated into Russian.

From the age of seven I have painted a lot. I was always at hand a pencil and paper. After each collection, I had to release my head, and I drew this. Then I began to realize that always depict the same person, who returns again and again, regardless of the theme, it helped, saved. I will not show my work, only once - a close friend of Salvador Dali. And he insisted that I continue to draw.

And then I thought, why not show me youroperation. I could choose any capital of the world: New York, Paris, Madrid ... But being an architect, I know the history of art. And I believe that the best art that I love, was born in the early 20th century in a small town called Moscow. Did you know that? Modern art, abstract art, surrealism - all! Kandinsky, Marc Chagall - all great artists to the middle of the 19th century were born in Moscow. So I decided to show off their figures for the first time it was in the capital.

I'm not an artist in the truest sense. I do not work with oil. I have a schedule. By education I - architect. My Pictures concise. In the east, there is a black and white sign: yin and yang. My paintings are like him - a black-and-white and embody only the most important thing, but the essence of the world.

The man who starts his creativecareer today, I would advise to be prepared for the fact that he finds himself in a world where there are strict laws of competition. His work constantly be compared with others. If you want to make a career, you need to make sure that anyone you can not be confused. Make it so that the audience and colleagues did not even dare to condemn you. Create something totally new. It is necessary to declare their identity and that you are the creator, and you have something to say to the world. Doing the right thing. In no event do not copy. The Creator does not have to see their colleagues. We need to cultivate self-absorption and concentration in their own world. And these tips are suitable for any form of creativity.
