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.

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

[My consumer] is a combination of people who would have shopped with me when I was at Jimmy Choo and then also because of price point, there is a broader audience now that we can reach.

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

I don't believe in delivering four times a year and then also delivering things that are not season appropriate.

I'm really hoping just to keep building on what we're doing. You have to build your core business first which is really important.

I think it takes 30 years to build a luxury brand.
