I am not comfortable walking the ramp for just any designer. I am particular about who I associate with.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't think many people would think I'm a designer. I behave in a different way. I'd get knocked down and cut to pieces if I went home and flounced about; this industry is known for the flounciness, but I've got my feet on the ground.
I think of my customer as a woman who wants to look beautiful and be able to walk.
As a designer, you've always got to push yourself forward; you've always got to keep up with the trends or make your own trends. That's what I do.
On a red carpet, you really want to feel your best, so to work with a designer who will shape a dress to your figure and take into consideration your opinions is really a blessing.
I have made things for Calvin Klein and other designers, and it's interesting to see the way each person approaches it.
There are so many designers that I love, and I'm so lucky that I get to work with so many of them and sometimes spend time with them.
I do find walking is fundamental to my creative process.
I'm a designer, I love it, and I haven't worked this hard to do bad work.
The reason I go for the designers is because they make me feel good. It's about finding clothes that make you feel good as a woman. If I like it, I'll wear it. You have to go with your instincts and not be led by trends.
Walking is pretty easy. You just have to be confident, like not caring. And honestly, people think about their walk too much, so they try to do something really interesting, but the designers hate it.
