If you ask me to sew a button, I don't know how to do it! The idea of the whole collection and how you want to build your brand is all about working with the right people. And luck!

I didn't long to be a designer. I always liked fashion, but it was always a bit sleeping in me.

You can't wait for people to tell you; you have to know yourself.

When you work in fashion, you need to work as a team. You cannot do anything on your own.

I find that it is much easier now for women to be in any position because, as you see, they are presidents of banks, they are prime ministers, they are doctors. Everything is about women.

I rarely go into a shop on holiday, because fashion and design are what I'm involved in every day. I need another world.

I don't want the collections to look like a potpourri. It has to have a cohesive idea, and it has to be glamorous and beautiful and fit well.
