The sexiest thing about a bikini is that it leaves something to the imagination, which is the best part.

Every time that I wanted to give up, if I saw an interesting textile, print what ever, suddenly I would see a collection.

To me, fashion is like a mirror. It's a reflection of the times. And if it doesn't reflect the times, it's not fashion. Because people aren't gonna be wearing it.

What people look to me for is a whole look. People come to me for icing on the cake, not a basic stretch pant.

I think that fashion has become such a big business and with globalization we are on new territory at this point. We are not just designing for a country we are designing for a world now.

I think I'm a global citizen. My parents came from China, were educated in France and emigrated to the United States. And I think that opened up my mind to be able to live and work anywhere.

You have to focus on your dreams, even if they go beyond common sense.

I think you have to be in the right place at the right time. And understand that and know when it is your time and how you react to it and how you respond to it.

I’m always about optimism and exuberance. It’s what I feel about fashion.

To me if you're going have a show, it should be a show. It should be entertaining and take you on a journey.

A piece of fabric can get me going.

Leisure is being allowed to do nothing.

Is it okay to roofie a girl just to shut her up?

Every time my brain parks the car neatly in the driveway, my mouth drives through the back of the garage.

I'm a very loyal and unreliable friend.

Success is the process of not accepting failure.

Something's lost, but something's gained, in living everyday.

I don't believe in happy families.

To build up a future, you have to know the past.

I've been a little bit obsessed with religion, without being a religious person, for about a decade.
