Deepika is one of my absolute favourite Bollywood actors. It is wonderful to have someone of her stature wearing my brand

It saddens me to see the reality-television shows that are getting so much fanfare that are a celebration of stupidity and the degradation of women. And those women are consistently wearing too short, too tight dresses. I hope the trend of aging gracefully returns.

I'm not a believer of luck. I think opportunity and hard work becomes luck.

I'm fascinated by furniture design and interiors, and I want to try designing all that stuff.

I decided if it was going to be a mistake to come to New York and try and make a career in fashion, then it was going to be my mistake... But the American dream is real. I'm living it.

I wanted to do something not just commercial but also covetable.

I was in Nepal and I had watched Oprah Winfrey's show. I had no idea, as a kid in Nepal, who she was, but I remember watching an episode of hers about living your dreams.
