If I'm going to do something, I'm going to do it well. That's just my character, that's just the way it is with me.

Because I'm a designer, I'm quite good when I shop. I know what I'm looking for.

When I started, department stores were either very fashion, or very tailored, so the two never mixed. I mixed it, and they said you're too tailored for fashion and too fashion for tailoring. So I had to move the market. So that's what I did.

I'm ready to do womenswear. You've always got to be inspired by something new - women have so much more shape and I'm about finding what to engineer around those shapes.

Shirt collars are very important to me. Putting a very soft shirt collar with a formal suit doesn't work for me at all.

My wife and I have a tradition of popcorn and videos with our kids on Friday evenings.

In Los Angeles, I'm always in Fred Segal. It's become a ritual. I have lunch and then buy lots of things I don't need. Usually tons of clothes for the kids that they grow out of in 10 seconds.
