I've never wanted to be in fashion. Because if you're in fashion, you're going to be out of fashion.

Some days I have a knot in my stomach because I've got to sit down and come up with something in womenswear that no one else came up with.

There is a way of living that has a certain grace and beauty. It is not a constant race for what is next, rather, an appreciation of that which has come before. There is a depth and quality of experience that is lived and felt, a recognition of what is truly meaningful. These are the feelings I would like my work to inspire. This is the quality of life that I believe in.

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

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."

I like romance, I like glamour and I like realism. I think that's a great combination.

As I started to buy cars, I didn't know that I was building a collection. I just wanted the cars I was dreaming about. Once you drive a good one, it is like having a fever.
