I think a lot of women have too many mini skirts in their closets.

People always think that designers hate each other. And we're certainly a competitive lot, but we also enjoy each other's company. No one else knows what you're going through other than another designer.

I think a lot of women have too many mini skirts in their closets.

It's funny when I hear people complain - particularly about the most fabulous parts of being a designer, like when you're getting ready to work on a show. I don't even know that I'm tired. I could stay up for six days straight! No drugs, no coffee, no nothing. I'm just so excited.

I not only enjoy it, I think, how do you design things that are applicable to life - unless you live it?

I can't dance and I can't sing too well.

My mom was a model. She had me at 20, so she was a young mother.
