I'm a believer in fate and in fulfilling your destiny. I've always had a kind of inner voice that I have learned to listen to.

When you are having fun and creating something you love, it shows in the product. So when a woman is sifting through a rack of clothes, somehow that piece of clothing that you had so much fun designing speaks to her she responds to it and buys it. I believe you can actually transfer that energy to material things as you're creating them.

Your name is a funny thing. It stands for what you're about, and everything I do is really about pride.

She needs to have a few drinks and cry a little-then she'll be perfect.

If you are creative, sometimes you give up a lot of things that other people have.

Only hire people you want to have dinner with.

I don't work for money any longer. I'm fortunate enough not to need to work for money, but I work for pride; I work because I love to work, and so the idea that one could lose control of one's own name and that things could be produced with your name on that you were not proud of scared me.
