China Is Exciting Because It Is An Extremely Curious And Interested Market. What More Can A Designer Ask For? The Client Here Is Bold And Willing To Try New Things, Which A Country With A Long Fashion History Wouldn't Dare. France Or England Is Weighed Down By All These Rules, Elaborate Etiquette, Do's And Don'ts. Things Here Move Incredibly Quickly.

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. The French Are Not Afraid Of Their Luxury. Americans Can Be So Puritanical And Think, "that's My Special-occasion Bag." Whereas, For A French Woman, It's Her Everyday Bag.

I Grew Up In A Family Of People Who Were Obsessed With Fashion.

The Craziest Thing About Fashion People In General, Not Just Designers, Is That It's Always, "oh My God, You Lost Weight! I Love Your Hair!" Or "oh, You're So Tan!" Or, "you're So Skinny! I Love Your Shoes!" These Are Fashion Icebreakers. Everyone's Always Looking At Each Other.

For Me, True Luxury Can Be Caviar Or A Day With No Meetings, No Appointments And No Schedule.
