I had eight brothers and sisters. Every Christmas my younger brother Bobby would wake up extra early and open everybody's presents - everybody's - so by the time the rest of us got up, all the gifts were shredded, ribbons off, torn open and thrown aside.

I currently live in the Plaza in New York and I love it - all that history, all those interesting stories.

The best city for fashion is Tokyo. You see styles there you won't see in London, Paris, Milan or New York. I also like the fashion scene in Los Angeles - it has a unique look.

When travelling, dress as comfortably as possible and don't have expectations of everything going perfectly.

I had no confidence at school. I was not a good student and I really thought I was pretty stupid. Just dumb.

I saw my future. I pictured it, but didn't quite know how to get there. But I knew that I should never give up.
