Being from a very traditional Chinese-American family, my parents believed the only options to have a successful life were to be a doctor, a lawyer, an engineer or a business person.
From Phillip Lim
I have always had a relationship with clothes.
When I say that I'm a businessperson and a dressmaker, it's the truth. I run a business, and I make dresses, I make blouses.
I'm not such a public person.
I'm shy.
I think my parents were immigrants, you know, so I guess I would be first generation. Growing up in California.
I love crazy, gaudy bling.
My mother was a seamstress, so making clothes was not something you would willingly go into.
Just because you work in the fashion industry, it doesn't mean you live your life in fashion.
