Longing and desire goes further than instant satisfaction. That's human nature.
You still get the sheer quality coming through but you're covered.
Love this in the film, “Velvet Goldmine” it captures the excitement and the thrill at the moment of discovery!
Totally girly - love all the childish sounds.
I think whenever people talk about the 'Anna Sui woman,' they're talking about someone that's probably kind of more downtown, and there's always like this ambiguity: Is she a good girl, or a bad girl?
I just love the whole idea of conversational prints.
I just love the way the '60s rock stars put themselves together, because they were like dandies and peacocks. They really lived out their fantasies - and dressed their fantasies.
I have a big responsibility to my licenses. All my licenses draw from and take ideas from the runway.
I grew up in the suburbs of Detroit.
I don't have the luxury of making clothes just to make an effect. It can't be something totally frivolous, because my distributors have to have a successful season, too.
I always say the next big thing will happen in unexpected places - up and coming cities that aren't necessarily boom markets.
Creating a book and creating a collection involve a lot of editing.
Fashion should be fun and accessible.
At the point when I wanted to become a designer, I didn't think about, 'Oh, but I'm a woman,' just like didn't think about like, well, 'I'm Chinese' or that 'I'm in Michigan.' You know, none of those things were obstacles to me. I just had this idea that this is what I had to do.
