“25 [ octobre 1934 ]

J'ai dit à Mariecotte : « Il n'y a plus que deux choses qui m'intéressent : le catholicisme et les robes. » Qui comprendrait ? Elle n'a pas compris... En regardant (1 h 1/2 du matin ) une délicieuse robe de Maggy Rouff ( Vogue ), je comprends que, pour moi, création de robe = pureté. C'est cette folie de pureté qui a dominé ma vie, qui me donne l'attention fascinée par la robe jamais faite encore, la robe qui n'a pas d'habitudes, la robe inhumaine. Et cela ne signifie pas « la robe jamais portée », car tout vêtement neuf suffirait : non, il faut du jamais-vu, et le jamais-vu ne suffit pas, il faut vraiment du jamais-fait. La robe à quoi aucun acte n'est intégré encore, la robe sans habitudes, sans passé, sans péché.”
― Catherine Pozzi, Journal, 1913-1934
