Half The Time I Don't Even Think

Even Though I Grew Up As A Sephardic Jew In Brooklyn Where We Ate Syrian Food And Went To Temple, It Was Still America.

I Equate Peonies With Love Because They're The First Blooms Of Summer.

Sometimes I'm Really Dressed Up, And It Really Turns Me On

To Me, You Can't Have Style Without Being Inspired. When I Design A Collection, I Am Inspired By So Many Things. The Color Of A Flower. The Shape Of A Butterly's Wing. The Juxtaposition Of An Old Tenement Building Next To A Shiny New Skyscraper.

I Have A Lot Of Obligations.
