I Know What Women Look Good In.

It's Funny When I Hear People Complain - Particularly About The Most Fabulous Parts Of Being A Designer, Like When You're Getting Ready To Work On A Show. I Don't Even Know That I'm Tired. I Could Stay Up For Six Days Straight! No Drugs, No Coffee, No Nothing. I'm Just So Excited.

Seventy Per Cent Of The Clothes You Own Should Be Meat And Potatoes. Thirty Per Cent Should Be Icing And Fluff - That's Colour, Pattern, Shine, Accessories. Too Many Women Get The Proportions The Other Way Round, Then Can't Figure Out Why They Can't Get Dressed.

The Biggest Lesson That I've Learned Is That Fashion Is This Tightrope Where You Have To Be Consistent But Inconsistent. You Need The Connective Thread But At The Same Time You Need A Sense Of Surprise.

Ultimately, Clean Lines Have Greater Longevity, Which Women Appreciate, And To Which They Can Add Their Own Personality

I Think The Trick Is, How Do You Spend Time Doing It But Make It Look Like You Haven't Spent Time Doing It? Over The Years You Look At Women Like Lauren Hutton And Everyone Says: 'she Just Pulled Her Hair Back And Ran Out Of The Door.' I've Been In Fittings With Lauren And She Definitely Thinks About It. She Just Knows How To Make It Look Easy.
