I created the peplum so you can eat in it. You can have a dessert, you can have another sandwich.

All I want is beautiful. I mean, I like grey hair, I love wrinkles. But this is me.

I like having the freedom to dress as I desire.

I think fashion is about longevity and doing your work. It isn't about winning or losing. It's about process, keeping it going.

Elegant is not what you wear, and it's not about how you wear it, but it's more about who you are.

I am always trying to put myself inside: Every dress I do, I think, 'If I were a woman, would I wear it?'

Sometimes you don't really need armor to feel protected. Sometimes maybe you need just a chiffon dress to hug you.
