Having success at an early age gave me more of a sense of what's important in life rather than always driving to make it.

I'm interested in longevity, timelessness, style - not fashion.

And I'm excited when I find somebody stimulating to talk with. That's one of the great treasures in life.

Some days I have a knot in my stomach because I've got to sit down and come up with something in womenswear that no one else came up with.

I have always loved things that are timeless and get better with age.

I went through the extremes of amazing notoriety and also the dreaded things that you never thought you'd have to live through. Not everything works the way you want it to, but if I sit back and think, 'Am I happy about this?' Yeah. I wouldn't have done anything any better.

I don't like it when a woman looks like a fashion victim. Some women think that if the look this season is minis, they have to wear minis. If you don't have great legs, there are plenty of alternatives.

I’ve always been about style for people, not ‘You’re going to wear this outfit,’... It was the way you put yourself together and the imagination, not buying this number off the rack, but the way you wear it

What I do is about living. It's about living the best life you can and enjoying the fullness of the life around you- from what you wear, to the way you live, to the way you love.

I'm a fan of people that have quality, that do what they do and that are not into the showbiz.

When you're a kid, you think you can jump out the window and be okay. But when you get older, you think, Wait a minute - I can't fly!

I exercise at the gym with a trainer. I feel it's very healthy, very important - important for everybody. I feel it's good for you. It makes you feel better. It loosens you up a little bit.

For me accessories create and define a woman's personal style. The bag she carries, the watch on her wrist, her jewelry, her sunglasses, her shoes all define a look that is her signature. For Spring 2014, my accessory collections are about a clean, graphic boldness creating a new dimension redefining modern classics.

You have to create something from nothing.

People ask how can a Jewish kid from the Bronx do preppy clothes? Does it have to do with class and money? It has to do with dreams.

My life has been a dream. If someone had to write a story about it, it would seem a little unreal. It's the kind of story I would read and say, 'Nah, that's not possible.'

I didn't have a vision as in, This is where I'm going. I had a vision as in, This is what I love to do.
