I'm interested in longevity, timelessness, style - not fashion.

I never said to myself, "I'm going to be the greatest." I just wanted to do my own thing.

Glamour is an attitude-it's the expression of a certain kind of confidence. A glamorous woman is always elegant, but she also possesses an air of mystery and excitement. She's dramatic-almost untouchable.

The clothes that I design and everything I've done is about life and how people live and how they want to live and how they dream they'll live. That's what I do.

I never went to fashion school. I didn't know what a designer was. I knew I had something, but I didn't know what it was. And it could just have easily been nothing.

Personal style is about taking a risk, trying something unexpected, and having fun with fashion, but always being true to yourself.

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."
