I love anyone who breaks the rules, and musicians always break the rules - in an aggressive way.

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

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

Lady Gaga is the present and the future. She is the most revolutionary and inspirational artist. She is fearless and daring.

Just like music evokes emotion, so can garments.

You can have small moments of happiness in life. You certainly can’t expect years and years of it.

I understand that the rule of fashion is to change, even as a successful designer - you do not want to be stuck in the same rut.
