My love of fashion stemmed from my mother's passion for it.

People don't really go to museums in Rio. I shouldn't say it's not sophisticated, but, you know, they go to the beach.

My birthday is May 10. I'm so Taurus, you would not even believe. All the Tauruses I know have this connection to the earth and the environment.

I hate to sound esoteric, but there is something about a house that leads you to that one chair, that one corner, where you just sit and feel comfortable.
