Tailoring was considered to be a world that was very traditional, and basically going out of fashion. Fashion designers did not have a real link with tailoring or tradition, so I fused the two worlds together.

You can't have style if you don't have substance.

Film is such a very good tool for communicating emotions, and all designers and creative people look to inspire an emotional response.

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.

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

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.
