Quoted: Thierry Mugler Leaves the Past Behind

Thierry Mugler who, after around eight years of mostly silence, is back in the spotlight with his new scent, Womanity, which, according to a write-up in the New York Times, "Is meant to evoke a metaphysical bond existing among all of womankind." The French designer has also recently undergone a remarkable physical transformation and now weighs around 240 pounds and sports muscles "So bulging as to impede natural movement," a look that requires him to employ a seamstress in Paris to construct clothes for him by sewing together two or three store-bought items. Why alter your appearance to the point of unrecognizability? He explained: "You don't want to be reminded that you did this or you did that...It is disturbing."
