Luxury is...to be able to take control of one's life, health, and the pursuit of happiness in a way that is joyful.

I love people - it is not the fashion, it is the people in fashion I love.

When I was a young boy, growing up in Durham, North Carolina, the women in my family were truly passionate about their clothes; nothing was more beautiful to me than women dressing with the utmost, meticulous attention to accessories, shoes, handbags, hats, coats, dresses and gloves to attend Sunday church services.

I don't understand the world of the Internet. I just type up on my computer.

People love fashion exhibits because they can fantasize. They can respond to a dress even if they can never wear a dress like that.

The zenith of elegance in any woman's wardrobe is the little black dress, the power of which suggests dash and refinement.

It's incorrect to assume you can be a fashion editor because you blog, if you don't have experience to look at fashion in a professional way.
