To me, beauty and makeup and color is like the finishing touch on everything.

I am a perfect being in a perfect world.

Without any kind of real ego on my part, I just thought, I'm going to approach the people I admire and see if they want to do something together.

Sofia is so active, and she made The Virgin Suicides, which I thought was great - all these things are inspiring to me, not in terms of creating a particular dress, but just in terms of knowing that there is this type of woman out there.

I always say that I'm not the director, I'm part of the team.

I always say I lived my life with my grandmother. She was emotionally stable, and she was very encouraging to me.

Part of the talent of any company is to surround yourself with people who have good spirit and help you do more and more things.
