I am proud that my collections have received such praise, and I am even more proud to share the stage with so many talented designers.

I have olive skin, so if I get pale, I look green. I have to tan.

It's hard for me to describe my own style because I'm me.

I'm hugely inspired by the '60s and the '70s. I just love the music of that time and the overall freedom of that era. I love that the idea of clashing didn't really exist. You could mix prints on prints, you could mix fabrics and colors - and it was more about the way you felt than about the label and trends. That's something that I've always gravitated towards.

I think lingerie plays a big part in how you carry yourself.

Spending time by myself is VERY important to me and I wake up pretty early, I wake up around 5 in the morning, and I get to have a couple hours to myself, and that is definitely I think really important to me and I think it's important for moms to have that too. And I love to carve out time for myself and sometimes I'll hang out with girlfriends, but i like to keep things pretty intimate.

True friends are like diamonds – bright, beautiful, valuable, and always in style.
