Elegance does not catch the eye. It stays in memory.

I believe that my clothes can give people a better image of themselves - that it can increase their feelings of confidence and happiness.

Accessories are important and becoming more and more important every day. They can completely change the look of an outfit, and women like the idea of having a wardrobe that's versatile. For instance, a strong piece of jewelry can make a simple outfit look elegant.

Anyone who is passionate about what they do will have a better chance of connecting with future generations than those who simply follow transient trends. At least their work will have a distinctive character, and this is what people respond to, I believe.

My philosophy has always been to help women and men feel comfortable and confident through the clothes they wear.

I like to think that I can introduce people to the idea of simplicity and elegance.

Jeans represent democracy in fashion.
