believe children home outside women
I believe that all women should have children. I think women are made to have children and to be mothers. I also think women have to have an identity outside the home.
against healthy image industry putting represent responsibility wall women
The fashion industry has a responsibility to represent a healthy image of women, but to start weighing them and putting them against a wall and making them feel like animals? No.
aspects behave freedom however worked
I used the aspects of being a woman to my advantage, but I worked for myself, not a big corporation, so I was lucky to have the freedom to behave however I liked.
designed women
I have always been attracted to clothes designed by women. Coco Chanel, Vionnet, Norma Kamali, Donna Karan. They have a little more - how do I put it? - understanding.
The Chinese consumer is everybody. It's very simple.
afford bit
I was lucky because I got so successful so early, and when you get successful early, then you can afford to be a little bit humble.
interested stories women
Women inspire me... so I enjoy women's stories and biographies. I am interested in all women.
Everyone knows I married a prince, and then I married a billionaire.
good showing
I had good legs, and I loved showing them off.
time women
Women are strong. We can do it all. But not always at the same time.
sad
I'm not tired of who I am. That would be sad!
lucky men women
My mother said that we're so lucky to be women. It's not that men are weak. Men are men. We're two completely different animals.
afraid strength women
All women are the same, really: They are strong, but they are afraid of their own strength.
message met strength sudden woman
All I can tell you is that I've never met a woman who is not strong, but sometimes they don't let it out. Then there's a tragedy, and then all of a sudden that strength comes. My message is let the strength come out before the tragedy.
