I'm always impressed by confidence, kindness and a sense of humour.

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

I just can't see myself as a trophy wife. I can't imagine not having my own life.

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

What I hate is leather leggings and an ankle boot. I hate the line.

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.

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.
