Jackie [Kennedy] wore one of my dresses – it was made from kitchen curtain material – and people went crazy.

I didn't set out to be unusual or different. I just wanted to do things my way.

That's what life is all about: Let's have a party. Let's have it tonight.

I designed collections around whatever struck my fancy ... fruits, vegetables, politics, or peacocks!

I don't like my whole life dragged out. I don't want anyone to know about me, because I don't think I'm very interesting... I like my work. I like what I gave. And that was it.

Being happy never goes out of style.
