Fashion Is Everything. Art, Music, Furniture Design, Graphic Design, Hair, Makeup, Architecture, The Way Cars Look - All Those Things Go Together To Make A Moment In Time, And That's What Excites Me.

We've Become A Little Spoiled With Menswear In Particular Because, Of Course, We've Come Off A Period In The '70s And '80s When Armani, Which Is Very Soft, Dominated Menswear. And We've Become Obsessed With Comfort. I Actually Don't Like That.

We Have The Terminator As Governor, And We Had An Actor As President, So Why Shouldn't We Have A Fashion Designer As A Senator?

Right Now Everything Is Pumped Up. Cars Look Like Someone Took An Air Pump And Pumped Them Up. They Look Engorged. Lips Pumped Up, Breasts Pumped Up, Everything Is Pumped Up. And It's Also Kind Of Off-putting. It's Sexual But In Such A Hard Way That It's, For Me, Not Sexual At All. Whereas The 1970s, Breasts Were Smaller. People Were Not Wearing Bras. Farrah Fawcett's Sexuality And Sensuality Was A Very Touchable Sexuality. She Was Kissable. She Was Friendly.

I Am A Perfectionist. This Job Is A Total Ego Thing In A Way. To Be A Designer And Say, 'this Is The Way They Should Dress; This Is The Way Their Homes Should Look; This Is The Way The World Should Be.' But Then, That's The Goal: World Domination Through Style.
