Francisco Costa is one of America’s most important designers, being the creative head of Calvin Klein women’s collection. And he’s also a proud Bull. In last year’s Interview magazine, the Brazilian born creative soul shared his Earthy qualities. Here are the highlights:
DAVID COLMAN: I have to start by asking you your sign.
FRANCISCO COSTA: Taurus. My birthday is May 10. I’m so Taurus, you would not even believe.
DC: What does that mean?
FC: All the Tauruses I know have this connection to the earth and the environment. We are very curious people, very loyal, very aware of and respectful of our surroundings. Also we’re stubborn, but that’s our way. We understand what we want, which is not bad.
DC: Have you ever been to a psychic?
FC: Yeah, 15 years ago. He told me that I was going to end up at Calvin Klein. I never told anybody. I was working at Oscar de la Renta at the time. It was bizarre. I would like to see this guy again, but I don’t know how to find him.
