I was a fashion addict by the time I was 11 years old. I'd wear a miniskirt and patent-leather boots.

I'd need an incredibly talented make up artist to make me look natural!

I go from a full working day to making sure I am home for dinner with my kids. I couldn't do that in a 10cm mini skirt but I am not going to resort to sweatpants and an old t-shirt.

You can't pretend that everybody likes Versace. It would be boring. It's better to create a reaction than to create no reaction. That's dangerous.

Heterosexual men like to be sexy more than gay men, honestly.

I am not a great believer in fairy tales. Every woman should fight hard for her own happy endings. Although occasionally it is nice to wake up as a princess.

I don't like balance. Balance is not a word you can use in Versace fashion.
