I Like Magazines. I Love To Look

My Father Was An Artist. When Life Was Harder And He Couldn't Get Jobs, He Painted Houses, But He Was Artistic. When I Went To See His Work, It Was Special. Somewhere Along The Line, I Felt I Was Special. I Didn't Know Why.

When You Think Of The Blur Of All The Brands That Are Out There, The Ones You Believe In And The Ones You Remember, Like Chanel And Armani, Are The Ones That Stand For Something. Fashion Is About Establishing An Image That Consumers Can Adapt To Their Own Individuality. And It's An Image That Can Change, That Can Evolve. It Doesn't Reinvent Itself Every Two Years.

Black Is Not As Good As Purple.

I Have Always Done What I Love Myself. My Philosophy Was That I Never Had Focus Groups. I Did What I Wear.

Sometimes When I Walk Into One Of My Own Stores, I Look At The Display And Say, "this Looks So Good - I Want To Buy It." Yet Other Times I Walk In And The Displays And Mannequins Will Be All Wrong, And I Don't Want To Buy Anything. When A Customer Walks Into A Store, She's Looking For Inspiration. So I'm Tuned In To People, And I Care About What They Need And Who They Are.
