When I was young, I wanted to be a movie star. But I realized that you have no control being an actor. So I went to architecture school in NYC, because I was crazy about buildings. Then I began to realize that I got more excited about Vogue coming out each month than I was about my projects.

I love black dresses. I think everyone should own a lot, but black dresses don't sell online because on the computer they don't read like anything.

In fashion as in life, the right thing at the right time is the right thing. The right thing at the wrong time is the wrong thing.

I suppose everything I do has sexual undertones, but I don't set out to make everything about sex. My clothes are more about sensuality. What I do is dress and beautify the body. My feeling is, if you have something beautiful, then show it.

Artists, like yourself, are born with a need to express that's just innate.

I enjoy the speed of fashion. I love doing different things and I think I still have something valid to say in fashion.

On the one hand, I want to go off and live in the desert with my dog and sculpt things out of adobe.
