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

To me, the word 'decadent' is so difficult to use; it's a very sensitive word, in a way.

Strangely enough, I really think that shoes are a communication tool between people.

I never wanted to design clothes. I never wanted to work for the fashion industry. Shoes sort of belong to the fashion industry, which is why I'm part of the fashion industry. But that's never been my thought. My thought since I was a child was really to design those shoes for girls on stage.

Funnily enough, the most difficult style to do is the plain pump because it needs to look good on a variety of feet.

I mean, the shoe - there is a music to it, there is attitude, there is sound, it's a movement.

There is a heel that is too high to walk in, certainly. But who cares? You don't have to walk in high heels.
