It's hard to keep the energy going sometimes, that's why I like to go with a group of people who are meditating. I love meditating in groups, it's fantastic.

I truly believe that philanthropy and commerce can work together.

I'm very involved in my business and with my family and my friends. I don't play the social world very much, and not to promote my product. I do it for the philanthropic problems because there I feel that I'm making a difference, and that I'm helping. So I do it in a soulful way.

My favorite journey is anywhere I haven't been

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

You have to keep your eyes and heart open - there are always new things to discover, new problems to solve.

I never see one woman when I design, it's always a universe of women
