The thing about Parsons compared to the other schools is that it really teaches you how to be a designer, whereas some of the other schools teach you to sketch or teach you the technical skills. But the curriculum at Parsons when I was there was how do you put a collection together, as well as all the technical stuff. It's the best training.

While at Parsons, I interned at Marc Jacobs, which was great. When I graduated, I went to work at J. Crew; that was also really great.

I went to Parsons. American sportswear was my education, and that is what is important to me.

I went to Parsons, and I interned with Ronen when I was at Parsons. We started our own company since then.

I like how they are. I think they're great. And their communities are communities. I have a greater sense of community in New York than almost anywhere I've ever lived. Really, it's terrific.

I used to sit in bed at night and flip through design-school catalogs. I found out that Parsons accepted a small number of high school juniors, so I applied my sophomore year and got in.

Overall, I was extremely impressed with the fashion scene that Stockholm has to offer, both on and off the runways.

I really like Jeff Lewis and 'Flipping Out' and 'Interior Therapy.' I don't know why I'm obsessed with American real estate and renovation.

When I graduated from Parsons School of Design, the dean at that time said I would never be a designer. Obviously I didn't listen.

I like very much to put on fashion shows.
