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.

There is a secret hippie within me.

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

Since an early age, I've been intrigued by the idea of design evolution.

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

I started in college as a business major and finally transferred to home economics and studied making clothes.
