It's very important for a brand to have an identity through the years, but it's very important as well to evolve because times change so fast.

I don't see anybody categorized as a 'fashion diva,' except for me! And I like that. I am thought of as a diva because I wear an evening dress and I take care of my look when I go out. I go to parties regarding business, not for fun. And that's why they call me a 'diva.'

For me the safety pin is about rebellion, and I'm punk in the soul.
