I just want to make beautiful, glamorous clothes.

I grew up in New Mexico, and the older I get, I have less need for contemporary culture and big cities and all the stuff we are bombarded with. I am happier at my ranch in the middle of nowhere watching a bug carry leaves across the grass, listening to silence, riding my horse, and being in open space.

It's really about putting that sort of quality and beauty back into our life.

I was bullied every day at school because I carried a briefcase. I could have left it at home. But I thought it looked great! I didn't understand why anyone else didn't think so.

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

I went to a fashion show, and this silver-haired guy was staring at me with these piercing water-blue eyes. It scared me because I absolutely saw and knew my entire future.

I'm extremely organized. The more things I have to work on and can bounce back and forth between, the more energized I am.
