Although I have no plans to tweet, I am fascinated by developments on the Internet.

We live in an era of globalization and the era of the woman. Never in the history of the world have women been more in control of their destiny.

Be the designer of your own destiny.

Now is the most exciting time in fashion. Women are controlling their destiny now, the consumer is more knowledgeable, and I have to be better every single day.

Never,ever confuse what happens on a runway with fashion. A runway is spectacle. It's only fashion when a woman puts it on. Being well dressed hasn't much to do with having good clothes. It's a question of good balance and good common sense.

Nothing is contrived. At night, the clothes should pour like liquid over the body.

My entire concept of lifestyle is built on the foundation of my homes. There is no more important expression of this concept than that of my own personal living space.
