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

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

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

I love the shape of cars. They are very inspiring as modern pieces of machinery. I can't drive, but I do like the look of them.

Hats are radical; only people that wear hats understand that.

I must point out - Sarah Jessica Parker is not a diva - she's one of these pop culture characters that everybody likes.

I believe in a democratic approach to fashion: if you feel good, then great. You may not look good, but it's not the problem.
