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

Femininity is a lot of power. It's allure. And the moment you start competing directly with a man, it's not that fun.

Work doesn't seem to interfere with my life. I have time for everything, even time to be alone.

You have to have a full-length mirror in your house so you can see what is missing and what you have to add to your look.

I don't get my inspiration from books or a painting. I get it from the women I meet.

I love books; my suitcases are always full of them. Books and shoes. I read when I am sad, when I am happy, when I am nervous. My favourite British author is Jane Austen, and my favourite American one is John O'Hara.

Luxury will be always around, no matter what happens in the world.
