I like the idea of having many different ways to express myself. There is a part of me as an artist and a creator who would like to express myself in many different ways. But then at the same time I know I have limited hours in the day, and I can only do so much successfully.

I wanted to create something that would live on forever, beyond my time, and out of that came Cashmere Mist.

My favorite journey is anywhere I haven't been

I do not believe I can no longer dress people, but it's more about dressing their insides. Everyone is affected by healthcare. Everyone is affected by education. And for me, a personal inspiration is the preservation of culture.

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

Its all about finding the calm in the chaos.

I'm more eclectic.Maybe I'm minimalist in the respect that I love black...black for the winter, white for the summer, you know? But I love artisanal things.
