Quote

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.

Glamour is an attitude-it's the expression of a certain kind of confidence. A glamorous woman is always elegant, but she also possesses an air of mystery and excitement. She's dramatic-almost untouchable.

We all get report cards in many different ways, but the real excitement of what you're doing is in the doing of it. It's not what you're gonna get in the end - it's not the final curtain - it's really in the doing it, and loving what you're doing.

For me, style is about quality, integrity and timelessness. It is free of trends but always feels fresh and new.

I have a vision for living. It's about elements of style. It's about all the things that I love, that I believe in.

I like romance, I like glamour and I like realism. I think that's a great combination.

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

My father was an artist. When life was harder and he couldn't get jobs, he painted houses, but he was artistic. When I went to see his work, it was special. Somewhere along the line, I felt I was special. I didn't know why.

It’s easier to follow fashion than it is to have personal style.

I try to find people who love and believe in what I do - and people I can respect because they do what I don't do. I've had to bring in financial people and put them in positions where they could tell me, Ralph, let's not do that.

I try to design into a world that is constantly moving, and moving me.

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.

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.

The best thing you can do is go away from this saying, 'I can do this too,' because it's all possible and I'm living proof.

I like magazines. I love to look at a magazine. But the magazines have got to get better. Everything pushes someone else to get better. So the Internet pushes the magazines.

Personal style is about taking a risk, trying something unexpected, and having fun with fashion, but always being true to yourself.

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

Love the fun of clothes, not the status of fashion.

I have always been drawn to the beauty of things designed to function. Mixing technical pieces with more traditional prints and patterns creates not only a quality experience, but a look that is unique, and for me, very exciting.
