I think more and more that I get to challenge myself and kind of raise the standard for myself every season. Even the term fashion is about change. It's about newness. And what that newness means is different every 10 years, every five years.

No scent is more sensual or more memorable to me than musk.

You may grow very quickly the first two years and then watch the business decline, unless you really start selling product at any price range with various degrees of quality.

Because I'm so hands on here at work and always looking at fabrics you have to be mobile and as comfortable as possible.

Don't you think that a lot of designers get into fashion because they have something about themselves that they don't like?

I could never live without artwork. It's a constant inspiration.

I realize that I live in the same environment that I did when I was a kid, but with less junk and better art.
