I think it's an old fashioned notion that fashion needs to be exclusive to be fashionable.

I don't find clothes sexy at all. I find people sexy.

Cigarettes and chocolate milk shakes are two amazing things.

I'm a designer. I make clothes and bags and shoes. I have a job that involves making creative choices, but I'm not a divinely inspired human being like an artist!

When you design a dress you ask yourself, would woman like it or no. It's much more of a creative process, not a research or trying to make somethings that sells or appeals. I hope that it will appeal to somebody, but it isn't what drives me.

Clothes mean nothing until someone lives in them.

I do think that in order for a company to be interesting to the investment community, there needs to be a plan; there needs to be a bigger retail footprint. There needs to be this idea - DNA, lifestyle, words I hate.
