Innovation is an evolutionary process, so it's not necessary to be radical all the time.

I like people who have a sense of individuality. I love expression and anything awkward and imperfect, because that’s natural and that’s real.

I said, 'Okay, it's the year 2000, I'm getting a computer and a Palm Pilot.' I know how to check my e-mail, and I've listed some phone numbers on it. Half the time the battery has gone out so I can't use it.

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

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.

I like to make things. I like making choices, choosing colours, evoking a spirit, a change.

I always find beauty in things that are odd and imperfect - they are much more interesting.
