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

I’ve always been about style for people, not ‘You’re going to wear this outfit,’... It was the way you put yourself together and the imagination, not buying this number off the rack, but the way you wear it

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.

What I do is about living. It's about living the best life you can and enjoying the fullness of the life around you- from what you wear, to the way you live, to the way you love.

Every time I design clothes, I'm making a movie.

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

I have a vision for living. It's about elements of style. It's about all the things that I love, that I believe in.
