I Was An Observer. I Liked To

Through Fashion I Have Shown My Interpretation Of The Competitive Spirit By Dressing Sportsmen And Women, Choosing To Work With Both Those Who Are Among The World's Most Renowned Athletes And Also Those Who Are Yet To Achieve Fame In The Arena Of Sport.

Retailing Has Become Fiercely Competitive. Today There Are Many Large Global Fashion Companies Who Have Opened Up Mono-brand Stores In Major Cities Around The World. When I First Opened My Boutique In New York, In 1985, There Were Almost No Other European Luxury Brands Present With Their Own Stores. Now Fifth Avenue Is Packed With Huge Stores From Major Italian And French Labels.

Today We No Longer Live In A Way That Is Constrained By Simple Working Or Leisure Environments - We Travel, We Work On Laptops In Coffee Shops, We Go Out To Dinner Straight From Work.

I Like To Think That I Can Introduce People To The Idea Of Simplicity And Elegance.

It Is Difficult To Talk About Fashion In The Abstract, Without A Human Body Before My Eyes, Without Drawings, Without A Choice Of Fabric - Without A Practical Or Visual Reality.
