Enjoy your life, fashion is not that important.

For me, restrictions are not always negative. Restrictions can push creativity. I like restrictions.

A few years ago, maybe it was more strange to be outside of the centers of fashion. Now, with the Internet and traveling that you can do, I think I'm more central than some people in Paris.

There are boys and girls, there is night and day, but above all there is love.

Our role is to dream and inspire rather than collude in impacting the reality.

Fashion shows are really my way of communication.

In the design process, there's a need to be culturally comprehensive.

I don't design for myself. I design something keeping in mind that it has to please a lot of women.

I'm a fashion designer, not a shoe designer. I like to design clothes.

The love of the art is what keeps me going. It's that sound that runs through my bones.

So you go on and on, with this intellectual fly down, your underwear exposed, and toilette paper hanging out the back of your pants.

Be careful of your moods and feelings, for there is an unbroken connection between your feelings and your visible world.

I had 12 years of classical music as a child, playing piano competitions as a teenager, playing in blues bands and rock 'n' roll bands, country and jazz bands. I played in about any situation.

I am a Christian. My husband and I belong to the Episcopal Church.
