Chicago is partly a fairy tale because it's inside one person's head, so that part of it's made up and the rest of it is reality.

In real life, a lot of people at that level will have their kimonos made especially for them.

I had to work out that it was something that could move, without having everybody in spray painted leotards.

In designing Supergirl, I wanted to embrace the past but more importantly, thrust her into the street-style action hero of today.

I like the architecture of lingerie.

Costumes are the first impression that you have of the character before they open their mouth-it really does establish who they are.

Inspiration comes from everywhere: books, art, people on the street. It is an interior process for me.

If you want someone to feel warm, you dress them in a warm color and put a warm light on them and you get the picture. Sometimes, all that needs pushing a little bit to help tell the story.

The reward is that you can actually create a world separate from reality with a story, actors, music, and camera design. When it works it can entertain, move people and teach us all.

Be really good with budgets because they keep getting smaller.

As a designer, you have to solve a lot of problems. Even though people are wearing clothes that are supposed to look beautiful, they'll have to do all kinds of things.

There has to be a cut-off somewhere between the freedom of expression and a graphically explicit free-for-all.

Baseball is a game of race, creed, and color. The race is to first base. The creed is the rules of the game. The color? Well, the home team wears white uniforms, and the visiting team wears gray.

I'm Machiavelli's offspring, I'm the king of New York, king of the coast, one hand, I juggle them both.

We all live in a televised goldfish bowl.

ISABEL: Sorry I missed my session Monday. DR. RUSH: Would you like to tell me why? ISABEL: I was depressed. DR. RUSH: That's a good reason to come to therapy.

Buy when the cannons are firing, and sell when the trumpets are blowing

I'm contemplating thinking about thinking...but....it's overrated - just get another drink in!

I'm going to be so normal that when people look up normal in the dictionary, my name will be there.
