I always tell this story: When I started, the woman went to the store to buy a dress. She saw it in pink and red, and then she remembered that the husband, who is probably going to pay for the dress, loves it in pink. So she buys the pink. Today, the same woman goes to the store and remembers the husband likes pink, and she buys the red.

I hate pretty. It’s a very empty word. It gives a bad name to beauty.

What women have achieved in the last 50 years, I wish men would have achieved in the last 100.

A woman can wear anything- she can make it right.

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.

I always think the best way to dress is when the person notices you first and the dress after.

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