My resolution is to make positivity, thankfulness and happiness my new mantra.

Being sexy is not about what's on show, it's all about suggestion, or insinuation. I'm interested in the way a garment hangs on a woman's body and the way it moves when she moves.

I wanted to be involved with fashion, though I didn't know what being a designer meant.

I came to New York when I was 21, 22. I couldn't speak English. I knew I wanted to go to fashion school.

I'm not an artist. I'm a fashion designer of clothes.

I just hate people who are lazy. To be on my team, you have to have energy and a sense of wanting to learn. That really excites me.

I don't love reading so much, but I love book shopping.
