To me, you can't have style without being inspired. When I design a collection, I am inspired by so many things. The color of a flower. The shape of a butterly's wing. The juxtaposition of an old tenement building next to a shiny new skyscraper.

The moon is such a planet, I can’t even stand it. What else is it if it’s not a planet?

Where is the real low thing? Where are the jelly shoes that you find that are sick because they’re so great…Everything has air quotes around it now.

You don't necessarily live for the moment; you live for hope-what you're going to get, what you're going to say, what you're going to think.

A mutt is couture-it's the only one like it in the world, made especially for you.

There's no reason for unhappiness if you're living with nice design.

I'm so involved in melancholy.
