		<description><![CDATA[From our pals at Details: The opinionated A.P.C. designer on bad art, what makes a good guest, and men who work out too much.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody"><ol>
<li>We&#8217;re not living in a very creative era. That&#8217;s not good or bad; it&#8217;s just the way it is. I think it&#8217;s in very bad taste to buy art right now. People should leave it to the hedge-fund owners who want to satisfy their wives. &#8220;Hey, I bought a Chinese avant-garde thing.&#8221; Good for you.</li>
<li>I think it&#8217;s very important to look sexy at home. I hate it when people say, &#8220;I will take this to the countryside because it&#8217;s not fashionable anymore.&#8221; I love being well-dressed when nobody&#8217;s looking at me.</li>
<li>At hotels, they always mess up the cleaning. They will do a crease when it&#8217;s not necessary. You give them a cotton shirt and they dry-clean it. It smells funny, so you have to rinse it again. So I travel light.</li>
<li>If you can tell a man&#8217;s sexuality by the way he dressesâ€”like a &#8220;gay&#8221; uniform or a &#8220;macho&#8221; uniformâ€”that&#8217;s disgusting.</li>
<li>Nowadays, people work out way too much, and they look like invaders from another planet. A guy who works out two hours a dayâ€”focusing on his chest because he thinks it&#8217;s sexyâ€”you can&#8217;t dress him, even if you send him to the best designer or stylist in the world.</li>
<li>Finance men have money but no taste. They&#8217;ll say, &#8220;My wife thinks this tie looks good on me.&#8221; They don&#8217;t focus on what&#8217;s beautiful and what&#8217;s not beautifulâ€”they leave it to women.</li>
<li>The rock star who uses a personal stylist to dress him should go to jail. If you&#8217;re doing rock and roll, you should know how to dress. You shouldn&#8217;t need to hire anybody.</li>
<li>Anybody can be a good guest for dinner. When it gets delicate is after one day. The worst guests are the people who come to your place and in the morning they say, &#8220;Okay, what do we do today?&#8221;</li>
<li>I once wore a pink, ruffled shirt for dinner, and I wish I had never done it. I thought it was funny, but I felt so bad in it I realized I don&#8217;t have the humor to deal with ugliness.</li>
<li>After you&#8217;re 35, it&#8217;s difficult to drink unless you&#8217;re running 10 miles a day. I&#8217;m not talking one dry martini every Saturday or something. I&#8217;m talking three dry martinis a night. And I don&#8217;t think that&#8217;s possibleâ€”it&#8217;s too much poisoning. It&#8217;s not a very sexy way to talk about drinking, but that&#8217;s the truth.</li>
