Well, my whole thing is that I'm kind of like a show-off!

To me, fashion is like a mirror. It's a reflection of the times. And if it doesn't reflect the times, it's not fashion. Because people aren't gonna be wearing it.

Fashion should be fun and accessible.

The red library is Sui's tribute to fashion maven Diana Vreeland, who served as editor for Harper's Bazaar (1939-1962) and Vogue (1963-1961). My most precious collection is my bound Vogue magazines, .. and they're kind of like my Bible. I look at them all the time when I'm trying to inspire myself for a collection.

I think you have to be in the right place at the right time. And understand that and know when it is your time and how you react to it and how you respond to it.

I love punk, I love a lot of British Invasion bands, I love garage bands.

I knew since the age of four that I wanted to be a clothing designer. I read an article in LIFE magazine about two young ladies that graduated from Parsons School of Design, and when they graduated they went to Paris and Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor opened a boutique for them. So I thought, Oh, I just have to go to Parsons, that's all.

There are always different influences each season. It could be a person, it could be a piece of furniture it depends on what I'm obsessing about.

I always say the next big thing will happen in unexpected places - up and coming cities that aren't necessarily boom markets.
