I don't have a life where it's galas, posh affairs. It's me, my dog and a sofa. And a TV.

There is a secret hippie within me.

I try to always have flowers in the house. I have a florist in Chinatown, and they deliver orchids every two weeks. I like living with living things.

I'm such a technophobe.

I always try to appreciate the most fleeting moments. The idea of the acrobats constantly tumbling and trying to adjust - I think that is what we do with aesthetics. It is a cyclical rhythm

You know, for myself, my personal journey has been a very fortunate one and I would say to people it's like the stars lined up and the skies opened up and the sun shined and I met the right people - was at the right time. And, most importantly, you know I love what I do.

Just because you work in the fashion industry, it doesn't mean you live your life in fashion.
