Every Time I Design Clothes, I'm Making

As A Kid, I Was Always Into Clothes, But I Didn't Have The Money To Buy Them. When I'd Get My Brothers' Hand-me-downs, There Was An Energy In Me That Made Me Say, "i Want To Get My Own Things, To Make My Own Statement." Somewhere Along The Line, That Energy - Coupled With My Exposure, Through Movies, To A World I Hadn't Known - Turned Into Something.

I Never Went To Fashion School. I Didn't Know What A Designer Was. I Knew I Had Something, But I Didn't Know What It Was. And It Could Just Have Easily Been Nothing.

It’s Easier To Follow Fashion Than It Is To Have Personal Style.

I Think I'm Very Fortunate To Be Born In America. And Lucky To Be Able To Have Lived And Had The Opportunity To Do What I Want To Do.

I Like Romance, I Like Glamour And I Like Realism. I Think That's A Great Combination.
