There are emerging countries. I mean, there are countries, you know, China, India, and Brazil, and all of these countries that are emerging. They are building homes. They are building - so there is a new lifestyle.

That wonderful and terribly frightening journey of self-discovery. That process of growth, of being an independent person, of learning who you are and what you want from life, is the real secret of life, happiness and beauty.

The whole point about beauty is its imperfection.

I never try to make a major fashion statement but I want to be the friend in a woman's closet. I make dresses that women get laid in.

You know I have never met a woman who is not strong. They don't exist.

I was born in Belgium. I went to school in England and in Switzerland, then I came to America, so I really feel like I am a citizen of the world.

You only regret what you don't do! Go for it, live your dreams and enjoy it all!
