We've come a long way. Power dressing now is designed to let the woman inside us come through.

I feel very strongly about dresses on every level - a dress feels like underpinning.

Many of the customers here are traveling all over the world so they need multiple types of clothes. That's one thing about Urban Zen - it is seasonless and it is timeless. So it's not about the fashion of a moment saying, "I have to have it now." It's something that you become a part of...sort of like a sari.

Today, fashion is really about sensuality-how a woman feels on the inside. In the '80s women used suits with exaggerated shoulders and waists to make a strong impression. Women are now more comfortable with themselves and their bodies-they no longer feel the need to hide behind their clothes.

Pasta is my favorite comfort food, but sometimes my body really wants a steak, and I'll have one.

I start my day with a mind, body, soul practice - yoga, pilates or meditation.

For me, the soul is connected to a higher being. It's not about religion; it's about connecting to your true self - your truth, the truth inside of you, the one you were born with.
