I was sometimes embarrassed about making it - people look at you in a different way. You become this rich guy with the house. I wouldn't trade my life for anyone else's, but I've sometimes felt set apart from the people I work with. They think, "You're rich - you don't have problems."

I am not looking like Armani today and somebody else tomorrow. I look like Ralph Lauren. And my goal is to constantly move in fashion and move in style without giving up what I am.

I didn't have a vision as in, This is where I'm going. I had a vision as in, "This is what I love to do."

Black is not as good as Purple.

I have always done what I love myself. My philosophy was that I never had focus groups. I did what I wear.

When I create a collection, I approach it with a cinematic point of view-I am not designing clothes, I'm creating a world.

I have a vision for living. It's about elements of style. It's about all the things that I love, that I believe in.
