I love attention, I'm very honest about it ... [but] if I wanna wear a pink dress or a lace dress or a kilt of whatever, it's like I'm not solely doing it for attention, I'm doing it first for myself because it gives me pleasure.

To be useful to others and to be useful to myself is definitely a better place to be.

I love my life. I can't believe I work in New York and Paris. That I work for Louis Vuitton. That I work for Marc Jacobs. It seems really weird every time I say my full name - like, that's me, and every time I hear the receptionist say my name, it's still weird.

I don't see myself as being as big of an influence as other people seem to think.

Fashion isn't a necessity. It pulls at your heart. It's a whim. You don't need it. You want it.

What's worked for me is not quitting and being passionate about what I do and not giving up - and when I don't believe in myself, turning to others who believe in me.

It's sometimes said that I'm rebellious and I do things to push people's buttons, but I just like the challenge.
