For Me, Fashion Begins In New York.

I Don't Want The Collections To Look Like A Potpourri. It Has To Have A Cohesive Idea, And It Has To Be Glamorous And Beautiful And Fit Well.

You Feel Very Romantic When You're In A Ball Gown. Everyone Should Wear One Once In A While.

I Don't Get My Inspiration From Books Or A Painting. I Get It From The Women I Meet.

I Am Very Shy. When I Go To A Charity Ball, I Don't Mind If People Look At My Sleeves. I Mind Terribly If I Have To Say Something.

I Was Schooled At Home, Then Didn't Go To University Because I Married When I Was 17. I Didn't Go Into Work Until Late In My Life.
