I like to see people who are survivors wearing my shoes. I am fascinated by people who can bounce back.

In designing shoes for myself; I'm not thinking of a specific person or catwalk. I'm just not thinking of clothes at all. I'm always thinking of a naked woman, actually.

I hate the idea of natural. For example, I prefer gardens to wild nature. I like to see the human touch. High heels are a complete invention - an extravagance. They're far from natural, but it's the impracticality that I adore. I prefer the useless to the useful, the sophisticated to the natural.

The stiletto is a feminine weapon that men just don't have.

A good shoe is one that doesn't dress you but undresses you.

I am interested in all things that celebrate and enhance the female form.

My shoes are perfect for the very sexy woman who wants to be elegant.
