People want to look taller and thinner. No one says, 'Ooh! Let me buy that dress because it makes me feel matronly!'

I grew up in a family of people who were obsessed with fashion.

My apartment looks like no one lives in it.

Ultimately, clean lines have greater longevity, which women appreciate, and to which they can add their own personality

I think quality will be increasingly important-we're moving away from a time of fast fashion. But really, the only constant in fashion is that you must keep moving forward, otherwise you'll be left behind.

My legacy would be that you don't have to give up anything. You can be chic but have a sense of humor, you can be sexy but comfortable, you can be timeless but fresh.

I think the older I get, the more I realize that the ultimate luxury is time.
