My parents always told us, you know, you have to get your education. You're not supposed to become a statistic.

It's every Williams for themself.

It's what I've trained for, from the first sketch to the fabric. Making dresses that are different from the usual style, and a lot of fun to wear.

My dresses are designed to win, so going through it, I think about, what do I want to represent? So, definitely, Vera Wang has been an inspiration for me.

It is very important not to think about losing.

You learn so much from your parents. We grew up in a home where we were definitely taught to be confident. I definitely give me parents a lot of credit.

I can walk around fine, but I don't have a desk job.
