I have a dining room done in different shades of white, with white cushions embroidered in yellow silk: the effect is absolutely delightful and the room beautiful.

I'd love to design bridal dresses.

I just want to make beautiful, glamorous clothes.

I buy the best fabrics from small mills in Italy. That is the basis for my clothes.

I started to work with cotton fabrics. I used cotton because it's easy to work with, to wash, to take care of, to wear if it's warm or cold. It's great. That was the start.

I love linen in soothing colors for any room in the house.

The shock of the way I mix patterns and fabrics can be disconcerting, but what I am trying to do is provoke new ideas about how pieces can be put together in different ways. I think this is a more modern way to wear clothes that in themselves are fairly classic.

During the summertime, I really like to dress like a gypsy. I love that whole lifestyle and the whole mixing of fabrics and flowy materials.

Over the years, I've learned that you can have fun with the fabrics and other elements, but if it's not tailored right, you'll blow it.

When I do my own makeup, I always start with Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer.
