As with most things in my life, I believe you should try to enjoy yourself and never feel like you are a slave to a routine.
I believe it is the responsibility and duty of those in high-profile positions to give a voice to people whose voices cannot be heard.
I don't even know what my natural colour is. Natural? What is natural? What is that? I do not believe in totally natural for women. For me, natural has something to do with vegetables.
We shouldn't be copying what we see. We should try to find our own sense of style, to believe in ourselves.
It's no good being too easily swayed by people's opinions. You have to believe in yourself.
I would love to dress everyone...but what all these actresses this year have in common is great style, lots of personality and that star quality that makes the red carpet come alive.
For me, she is easier to relate to and more relevant than a model, and of course she looks simply beautiful in the clothes.
She needs a vacation. She's worked so so hard for so many years. She's a young girl and she's a little tired.
My favorite pantsuit is done in cherry color and all this is a very classic fabric with, like, a bustier, ... Very, very sexy.
There are too many beautiful and talented women ?and let's not forget the men ? to choose from.
On a hanger, no dress is sexy. It's just fabric on a hanger.
I have an image of what a British gentleman looks like, and that image finds real expression in Prince Charles. He is beyond fashion - he is an archetype of style.
Plus-sized women shouldn't think of themselves as a size. They should think of themselves as women with rich goals in life. Size doesn't mean, really, anything. You can carry your size with pride and dress in a way that you like.
It's good to see the children be creative. It's the pleasure of the future.
