Everyone thought I was going to fall down on my shoes and I kept saying, 'Well if I do I'll just get up!'

A marriage is a solemn affair. The tempest of emotions and the myriad of arrangements are giddying, and when one is faced with these, clothing seems to be the last of one's priorities.

Fashion is not just about trends. It's about political history. You can trace it from the ancient Romans to probably until the '80s, and you can see defining moments that were due either to revolutions or changes in politics.

I know sometimes I can come off like a lonely spinster in a tower. That's not me at all.

I don't tell anybody else what to wear. I would never dream of it.

People always assume I don't need to work for money, but my divorce settlement was not as much as it's always reported to be.

I treat clothing or a piece of jewelry like it was a piece of art.
