I'm a fashion designer. What I do is artistic, but I'm not an artist because everything I do is destined to be sold. That's not to say that you can't be an artist and a fashion designer. I think some designers are artists.

If I was ever going to become a good designer, I had to leave America. My own culture was inhibiting me. Too much style in America is tacky. It's looked down upon to be too stylish. Europeans, however, appreciate style.

I'm a perfectionist, to the point of insanity.

I'm living the exact life I planned on living when I was five.

My goal is to help women to become the best version of themselves.

I was not popular. I was the kid in school that was bullied.

I don't want to find myself designing for the press.
