I'm a woman for all seasons. I mix 'n' match, do designer and high street - keep all my good pieces. I design all my evening and cocktail dresses most of the time as I dislike what is out there.

I don't look my age, I don't feel my age and I don't act my age. To me age is just a number.

Isn't three quarters of life a guilty pleasure?

I really feel now like a native New Yorker. And I'm very happy here.

I do it because I love acting, I love working, and whether it's radio, television, films, theater, I don't care as long as I can get out there and do it.

I was so fortunate to work closely with the designer Nolan Miller whilst on 'Dynasty' to create the wardrobe for Alexis Carrington Colby, and we had great fun sourcing outfits.

I was thinking, who of the English actresses in the last 30 or 40 years have achieved as much as I have?
