I just love the way the '60s rock stars put themselves together, because they were like dandies and peacocks. They really lived out their fantasies - and dressed their fantasies.

From the season I did the butterfly faux tattoos on the models on the runway, every collection we do has to have a butterfly t-shirt or trim or print. People come to me for butterflies!

I love punk, I love a lot of British Invasion bands, I love garage bands.

What people look to me for is a whole look. People come to me for icing on the cake, not a basic stretch pant.

I always say the next big thing will happen in unexpected places - up and coming cities that aren't necessarily boom markets.

I love history. I love art. I like to mix it all together, but in the end it somehow has to all make sense.

Longing and desire goes further than instant satisfaction. That's human nature.
