\u201cReal luxurious people hate status. You don\u2019t look rich because you have a rich dress. When you look at a person, do you see the spirit or the sexiness or the creativity? Just to see a big diamond, what does it mean? It\u2019s all about satisfaction. I think it\u2019s horrible, this judgment based on money. It\u2019s all an illusion that you look better because you have a symbol of luxury. Really, it doesn\u2019t bring you anything. It\u2019s so banal.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
