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.

Books open windows to the world and have the power to transform lives.

I don't like the word ['classic']. It makes you think we didn't do any work.

Personal style is about a sense of yourself, a sense of what you believe in and wearing what you like.

My day is pretty much busy. I do 15 million things in the course of a day. I'm holding up I think. I don't know how I look, but I think I'm holding up.

I try to design into a world that is constantly moving, and moving me.

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