I adore gardening, and whenever I have time off, that is my passion.

When I was a boy, I thought scent was contained in dewdrops on flowers and if I got up very early in the morning, I could collect it and make perfume.

If you have the right to call me a hot dog why do I not have the right to call you a stale 3-day old hamburger?

I always say: To be well dressed you must be well naked.

The essence of style is how you live your life

I want to make clothes that people will wear, not styles that will make a big splash on the runway.

I always design my own hats to complete my fashion thought....I like them slightly mad, like this huge black poppy. Right now I lift the bosom high on coats and dresses...I am using so many high curved belts.
