When I Read About Young Designers Selling

If You Are A Designer, Sometimes It Is Better Not To Delegate, Because Someone Pays Money For Something That You Designed, So It Should Be Exactly The Way You Want It, Exactly The Way You Would Have Chosen It.

It Means The Heel Needs To Be The Way I Want It And Not The Way Somebody Else Wants It, And The Toe Needs To Be Exactly The Way I Want It, And The Fabric And The Material Have To Be Exactly The Way I Want It. It Is Not A Democracy - It Is A Dictatorship.
