I don’t think punk fashion is a specter or overemphasized – it made a big impression, as there had never been anything like it before.

It’s true the punk fashion itself was iconographic: rips and dirt, safety pins, zips, slogans, and hairstyles. These motifs were so iconic in themselves – motifs of rebellion.

Even though it was the 70s, we found old stocks of clothes that had never been worn from the 50s and took them apart. I started to teach myself how to make clothes from that kind of formula.

Girdles and wire stays should have never been invented. No man wants to hug a padded bird cage.

I was a punk before it got its name. I had that hairstyle and purple lipstick.

My comedy is different every time I do it. I don’t know what the hell I’m doing.

I like to paint my own helmets. I design my own suit and boots, I like being unique in that way.

I would dream. I focused all my attention on going to America. The subculture, James Dean, the rock n‘ roll, the beat writers.

When we started to do punk, we put all of these things together to create the look of an urban guerrilla – a rebel.
