I believe one can live many lives through personal style. Every day is an occasion to reinvent yourself

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

I was very influenced by movies; I was very influenced by a world that had a sense of dream.

Enjoy your family. Do things that you like to do. Stay strong. That's the secret to remaining happy.

Having success at an early age gave me more of a sense of what's important in life rather than always driving to make it.

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.

Success isn't based on 'look what I can do!' but more on an inner sense of self and believing you have something to say in your own consistent way. And I think we all have to fight to maintain our unique style and taste in a world that would have us conform.
