For me, starting each collection is always about what I really want, what I really need, and I was personally dying for sensual comfort.

I'm very involved in my business and with my family and my friends. I don't play the social world very much, and not to promote my product. I do it for the philanthropic problems because there I feel that I'm making a difference, and that I'm helping. So I do it in a soulful way.
