The city [ LA] is kind of going through an interesting transition; sort of renaissance time where there is so much going on here. I think it's really exciting to be here.

The customer moved on long before the industry reacted to what she wanted. She doesn't want to buy things four months in advance, she wants to buy something today and wear it tomorrow. She cares less about seasons and collections and really what she's looking for is price, quality, and convenience.

It doesn't matter what you are wearing-if you have good shoes and a good bag, you'll look right.

I don't really care about gossip. I care about building great businesses.

The reality is that I spent years in the factories in Italy when I first set up Jimmy Choo. Today, everyone who has a job at Jimmy Choo, I've done their job - right down to the cleaner.

I tried to put direct to consumer through a wholesales channel - the industry was just not ready to adapt and change. The other issue I had was with Jimmy Choo.

My daughter is my passion and my life.
