We live in an era of globalization and the era of the woman. Never in the history of the world have women been more in control of their destiny.

Now is the most exciting time in fashion. Women are controlling their destiny now, the consumer is more knowledgeable, and I have to be better every single day.

History has been the history of warfare.

No people in the history of the world have ever been so misunderstood, so misjudged, and so cruelly maligned.

The qualities I most admire in women are confidence and kindness.

I was surrounded by sisters. My childhood was all women.
