Each day is an occasion to reinvent ourselves

Fashion is transient, trends come and go. I believe in style, not fashion.

When you're a kid, you think you can jump out the window and be okay. But when you get older, you think, "Wait a minute - I can't fly!"

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

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.

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