1. Clothes are like a good meal, a good movie, great pieces of music.
2. I can’t dance and I can’t sing too well.
3. My legacy would be that you don’t have to give up anything. You can be chic but have a sense of humor, you can be sexy but comfortable, you can be timeless but fresh.
4. There’s a whole generation of women who never really heard the word investment before, when it came to fashion. They’ve been buying things because they were cheap.
5. American women often fall into the trap of, ‘Oh, these are my weekend clothes. These are my work clothes. This is what I wear at night.’ It’s so old-fashioned.
6. Americans are always a little bit insecure.
7. For me, true luxury can be caviar or a day with no meetings, no appointments and no schedule.
8. North Americans as a whole need to embrace having clothes altered to their body. I hear it all the time: why do the Europeans always look so good? They have a relationship with their tailor and spend the time and money to make their clothes look their best.

14. There are two kinds of designers: ones who are very happy locked in their office surrounded by their coterie. The last thing they need to do is to go to a trunk show; they’d go running for the hills. I not only enjoy it, I think, how do you design things that are applicable to life — unless you live it?
15. People always think that designers hate each other. And we’re certainly a competitive lot, but we also enjoy each other’s company.
16. When you try on something, you have to ask yourself, ‘How many ways could I wear this? Could I wear it to work? To dinner or drinks? Will it span the seasons’ If you have to think too hard about those questions, then skip it.
17. Give me Caviar Kaspia and give me a hamburger. I love the two extremes.
18. I can sketch up a storm, and I’m very involved in how clothes are constructed, but I have a short attention span.
19. My mom was a model. She had me at 20, so she was a young mother.
20. I am the oldest young designer in New York City.
