In a world where every man and his dog is a designer, Alexander McQueen was the real deal. His talent was supersonic.

It thrills observers and makes the wearer feel a million dollars.

I always design the hat with the wearer in mind; otherwise, it's an inanimate object.

I'm Irish but I design something that is quintessentially English and I love hats.

Gaga is an entertainer, so a hat for her is part of the illusion of entertaining.

Every day, I like to make hats that make people dream.

I believe that I am a hat designer, not a milliner.
