Everyone should work; it's good for the soul.

I dress women the way I see them and the way I envision them from day one, thus my customer knows that what she is looking for she will get.

I'm inspired by different cultures around the world and love to incorporate these facets into my collection.

I'm a big proponent of young women dressing appropriately in the workplace to get ahead. We need to demand respect as women, and part of that involves how we present ourselves.

When I talk to young girls about clothes, I tell them to show a lot of brains.

Dressing for yourself and not a man is definitely something I advocate.

I have known that I wanted to be a designer since I was 8 years old.
