You can never please everyone, and I think it's best not to.

I'm not a model, so the idea of modelling a suit or clothes is weird in itself.

I love to take things that are everyday and comforting and make them into the most luxurious things in the world.

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

Design is a series of creative choices - it's a collaborative effort, an evolutionary process. You choose your fabrics depending upon what you want to say, then you work with mills to get those fabrics. Through the process, you realize what you want it to be.

Awkwardness gives me great comfort.

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