What I think I sell with my clothes is confidence, so hopefully all my dresses, my accessories, are friends to the women. When you open the closet, and your eyes are swollen, and you don't like the way you look, you go to your friends.

Passion and persistence are what matter. Dreams are achievable and you can make your fantasy come true, but there are no shortcuts. Nothing happens without hard work.

It's more important to be healthy and of good spirit than it is to be thin, just as it's more important to be an attractive woman than a fashionable one.

There is nothing more thrilling than arriving in a new place on your own and feeling the sense of possibility and excitement that brings with it.

Usually, the fairy tale ends with the girl marrying the prince. But mine started as soon as the marriage was over.

My best creation is my children.
