It seems like everyone is showing a pretty spring coat. Ideally, they're in a beautiful print. I think women will love that and some of the coats are so light they still can be worn when it's warmer.

I think one of the most interesting trends for spring is military. We saw it for fall, but for spring it's being shown with a floaty dress and I think it's made designers very creative, like, how do I do military but lighten it and make it soft?

It seems only to be increasing in popularity, and the major reason is time. The rise and reign of Martha Stewart using all natural elements [to decorate], that's not realistic for most people.

There were a lot of designers who did not take a chance for Fall 2005, and I think those designers are going to be braver, ... although certainly not as courageous as those who already took a chance.

It's not as sexually hard, like you think she's going to pull out the whips and chains.

I think it's partly the war. Pink is very sweet, childish, optimistic color.
