When someone asks about a career in fashion, I say start at the bottom. If you want to start a business, you have to know it from the ground up.

There have been moments in my career when I've had to be tough and I've had to step up to the plate - but usually that's because a man has underestimated me. But other than that, I wouldn't say I'm a tough person.

The thing about Uggs is that they're so comfortable. Once you've worn them, you don't want to go back.

My worst date would be with someone nervous who has nothing to say. I like people who inspire me.

If I wasn't in fashion, I would have been a psychiatrist.

As a Business Ambassador, I am delighted to help both new and established British designers receive the recognition they deserve in the global fashion arena.
