When the youth of America gets together, amazing things happen.

I think that monogamy is artificial. I do not think it's something that comes naturally to us.

My customer has her own sense of style and knows herself well. My goal is to help women become the best version of themselves.

I am a perfectionist. This job is a total ego thing in a way. To be a designer and say, 'This is the way they should dress; this is the way their homes should look; this is the way the world should be.' But then, that's the goal: world domination through style.

The world might be a very scary place if it were only run by Virgos.

I hate tricky facial hair. If your facial hair is too spotty in places, shave. Just forget about it.

Fashion is harder than the film industry. You have to constantly be able to crank out hit after hit after hit on demand and on a very tight calendar. I've come back, I've lost it, I've come back again. It's really as good as your last collection.

You always notice a facelift on a woman. It's a tightness around the ears, and the scar is usually inside the ears. If I suspect it's been done, I usually move around until I can see it. But with a man, it actually pulls your beard and your sideburns back, and that's what's so strange.

I was not good at team sports, I have to say. I'm quite good at individual sports, but I was not good at team sports, so I wasn't good at baseball and football.

College campuses were once a hotbed of political activity.

I was not popular. I was the kid in school that was bullied.

When I was a kid, I thought I was going to be an actor.
