When I Read About Young Designers Selling

I Hate Going Out For Lunch During A Workday Because It Slows Down My Pace And Ruins My Rhythm. I Prefer To Eat At My Desk.

I Often Have A Bit Of Dark Chocolate After Lunch.

I Love New York. It's Given Me So Much As A Designer. When I Moved Here, I Wanted To Tap Into The Glamour Of The City Immediately. More Than Anywhere Else, New York Offers Itself Up - You Arrive And Get A Rush In A Flash. It's Dazzling. Everywhere You Look, There Is Decoration, From A Pair Of Jewel-encrusted Shoes In The Window In Bergdorf Goodman To The Chrysler Building. And New York Is Incredibly Democratic. Everyone Is Packed Into This Tiny Space. You Are Confronted With All Manner Of People, And I Love That.

I Was Bullied Every Day At School Because I Carried A Briefcase. I Could Have Left It At Home. But I Thought It Looked Great! I Didn't Understand Why Anyone Else Didn't Think So.

Yes, I Still Take My Baths All Day Long. They're Meditative. I Have Three A Day.
