In 1999, he announced that, at the age of seventeen, he had visions of Parisians in flames throwing themselves into the Seine and that after studying other concordant prophecies, he came to the conclusion that the Mir space station was going to crash in France at the time of the solar eclipse of 11 August 1999, its debris causing thousands of deaths in Paris and in the Gers region. [36] On 10 May 1999, he publicly vowed not to make any more predictions if Mir did not crash into Paris on 11 August 1999. [37] However, he claimed to have had an apparition of the Virgin Mary telling him to continue the predictions.

[4] He used unconventional material such as metal, paper, and plastic for his metal couture and outlandish and flamboyant designs. [5] For the debut of his namesake brand in 1966, he presented "Manifesto: 12 unwearable dresses in contemporary materials".
