My mother was a huge influence on me - she was a free spirit and helped me appreciate, from a very early age, that everyone is different.

I was the youngest kid. When I was five, my sisters were 17, 19, and 21, already becoming women. I would see how different they would be around one another and around men, even my father.

Something I really hate more than anything else is clogs.

There is a heel that is too high to walk in, certainly. But who cares? You don't have to walk in high heels.

During breakfast there is something I cannot resist, apart from my boyfriend - it's actually the phone. I have a phone breakfast. Always. I call friends, boyfriend, family. Checking who is where. 'Is everything fine?' This is breakfast.

I have this disease that if I feel good somewhere, I... buy a house.

Listen, to appeal to someone else you might put on a pair of shoes that you don't like or a dress you don't like. But there's no way you're going to put on a perfume you don't like it's too personal.

Fashion isn't interesting when it comes from an uninspired place.

To feel like a woman, wear heels, to feel like a goddess, wear five inches.

I hate the idea of natural. For example, I prefer gardens to wild nature. I like to see the human touch. High heels are a complete invention - an extravagance. They're far from natural, but it's the impracticality that I adore. I prefer the useless to the useful, the sophisticated to the natural.

I prefer girls to wear dresses because I like how they influence a woman's body language. I also love skirts. One of my favorite pieces of clothing is the pencil skirt because it obliges the wearer to have a pretty attitude. I like anything that shows a woman's legs because I love to see her skin and how she walks.

I really wish I had invented the flip-flop. I love flip-flops. It's the one style of shoe I would be so proud of inventing: the Havaiana.

A good shoe is one that doesn't dress you but undresses you.

Men in high heels? That's a prosthesis. But I sympathise. Women have these giant heels. They get taller and taller. The men need help. But a man in heels is ridiculous.

I feel I am a role model to many, not just for my designs, but also for the fact that I started my own company with the help of my two friends. I became a success story, and people relate to that.

Shoes are just a pedestal. What interests me is the power of the woman who wears them.

A naked woman in heels is a beautiful thing. A naked man in shoes looks like a fool.

I never wanted to design clothes. I never wanted to work for the fashion industry. Shoes sort of belong to the fashion industry, which is why I'm part of the fashion industry. But that's never been my thought. My thought since I was a child was really to design those shoes for girls on stage.

I would hate for someone to look at my shoes and say, 'Oh my God! That looks so comfortable!'

Shoes for men are about elegance or wealth, they are not playing with the inner character. That is why women are happy to wear painful shoes.
