I wanted this, I wanted to do this, but my work is me, and it has to be right.

I’m a very restless person. I’m always doing something. The creative process never stops.

If you want to establish an international presence you can’t do so from New York. You need the consecration of Paris.

Now is the most exciting time in fashion. Women are controlling their destiny now, the consumer is more knowledgeable, and I have to be better every single day.

We’re dealing with sophisticated customers. What’s most important to these women is individuality. I have to create things she’ll want to wear, no matter who she is.

Walk like you have three men walking behind you.

Gardening is how I relax. It’s another form of creating and playing with colors.

I like light, color, luminosity. I like things full of color and vibrant.
