I design for a woman who is on the go. Women are busier than ever, and I wanted to design a collection that can go from day to night and be fashionable. Sometimes I wear three outfits in one day.

I just feel such a connection to the little kids in Naples. I remember being on the street wanting a small piece of candy.
