Hollywood is a very inspiring place.

I have worked with wool all my life as a designer. There's so much more to it than knitwear - it's an amazingly versatile material and can be used in so many different ways from chic to rustic.

I think there was a time when I was too strict and controlling. I think I asphyxiated my children.

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

I have long been a fan and enthusiast where art is concerned.

Sometimes big designers are afraid that people won't recognize them if they change that much.

Plus-sized women shouldnt think of themselves as a size. They should think of themselves as women with rich goals in life. Size doesn’t mean, really, anything. You can carry your size with pride and dress in a way that you like.
