There was a time when we would pick up Women's Wear Daily and couldn't wait to see what it read. And now, you get it five minutes later on your iPad or your phone! The same has to apply to fashion.

I'm very involved with Pilates as well; you have to be careful. I can't do headstands any more, I have a neck and a spinal problem, but I used to do it.

I always need a support team, even at Donna Karan. I like collaborating. There is something in collaboration that is wonderful.

Personally, I don't use fragrance, and only use essential oils. Stephan [Weiss] said, "Donna, we have to do fragrance - fragrance will last forever - fashion goes up and down. And I said, "I love Casablanca lilies, I love the smell of your neck and I love suede. If you can combine these three together, we can discuss it."

Meditation is the calm in the chaos, the fastest way to settle down and get in touch with the stillness within.

Everything in life... has to have balance.

That's a journey I've been on for many years. I mean, being a working mother, realizing that I have to make and find my balance.
