In fashion, the most important thing is to move on.

I think the greatest reward I have is getting up and going to work each day. I love what I do.

Excess is not really something I consider a bad thing; especially when you are talking about living.

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

I come from a very warm island, where colors are very important, very vibrant, and obviously the color has been an influence on my work.

The great thing about fashion is that it always looks forward.

Working for incredible talents like Balenciaga and Antonio Castillo, I learned about the immense skill and creativity involved in couture work.
