I didn't long to be a designer. I always liked fashion, but it was always a bit sleeping in me.

I wanted to be involved with fashion, though I didn't know what being a designer meant.

I'm not really a fashion designer. I just love clothes. I've never been to design school. I can't sketch. I can't cut patterns and things. I can shorten things. I can make a dress out of a scarf.

I did not have a big view of many designers until I got to high school.

I didn't want to be a fashion designer, and for a good half of my career I didn't like it. I always wanted to do other things.

Never in my wildest dreams did I entertain the idea that I would become a fashion designer.

I never wanted to design clothes. I never wanted to work for the fashion industry. Shoes sort of belong to the fashion industry, which is why I'm part of the fashion industry. But that's never been my thought. My thought since I was a child was really to design those shoes for girls on stage.

I became a fashion designer by accident. I loved to make portrait drawings when I was a teenager, and from that came the interest in what people were wearing and why they were wearing it.

I went to art and design high school with a lot of people taking fashion. They would get up in the morning, and what they put on meant a lot to them.

I don't consider myself a fashion designer.
