What are the values that you share with Chanel ?
K.S.: “The ambitious and personal vision that was Coco Chanels' is sustained by the women I've come to know at the fashion house today. They carry that torch for her. I admire and am also fueled by that commitment to perspective. Their deep, sharp love of aesthetics and the audacity to express that truly... from somewhere equally as incommunicable and intimate is why I love Chanel's whole story. I feel that in our exchange... our work together... we share and feed a particular hunger for expression. I am so grateful for that. ”
How would you describe the Métiers d'art collection, that you embody, in 3 words?
K.S: “Imagined, created and built by a woman.”
What is your first fashion memory?
K.S.: "My first fashion memory is probably a stressful one... although, having said that I think I was a very confident five-year-old. I was a "rockstar" on Career Day at Kindergarten. I remember distinctly feeling like maybe other parents didn't think my "Kick butt first... take names later..." tee-shirt was as cool as I did. And I liked that feeling. I felt rebellious and in character and also totally myself. Clothes can do that for you. In a million directions. "
Your most memorable Chanel outfit?
K.S.: “I loved wearing what I guess was a sort of iridescent rose and champagne-colored sequined pantsuit to the Cannes Film Festival. I felt so great in it. The carpets there are long. I felt like I could wear it forever. It was for the premier of The Clouds of Sils Maria... I was with Olivier (Assayas) and Juliette (Binoche) and I remember thinking... this is exactly right. All of this.

Which 5 pieces should a woman always have in her wardrobe?
1. Pretty underwear is huge. The day you learn that, things change, imperceptibly. Not even for other people but for you. Such a nice touch.
2. A pair of Levis that make you feel sexier than any dress you own.
3. Something signature. Something like a leather jacket or something that always makes you feel like you nailed it. It could be anything… just something to covet. I feel like the right clothes take care of me. Like they're pals. I love writing my name on things. I hate losing my stuff-- if it doesn't hurt to lose something... it's not for me.
4. A really nice robe. Not a towel. Something to wear in the house.
5. Something sentimental. Something that actually belongs to a friend or someone you love. I love finding a jacket someone left and throwing it on.
