I wasn't a fashion editor. I was the one and only fashion editor.

I'm for everybody. There are no set rules. But if one's not a joiner. To hell with all of them!

Why don't you have a room done up in every color green? This will take months, years, to collect, but it will be delightful-a melange of plants, green glass, green porcelains, and furniture covered in sad greens, gay greens, clear, faded, and poison greens?

I think your imagination is your reality

Fragrances fill the senses with the mysterious.

I think allure is something around you, like a perfume or like a scent. It's like a memory ... it pervades.

I think part of my success as an editor came from never worrying about a fact, a cause, an atmosphere. It was me—projecting to the public. That was my job. I think I always had a perfectly clear view of what was possible for the public. Give ‘em what they never knew they wanted.
