I didn't grow up drawing runway models and deciding what they should wear.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I wouldn't be a good model for any designer's idea of what fashion is.
I never kept up with the fashions. I believed in wearing what I thought looked good on me.
I never expected to be a model. I never expected to be a stylist. Or a designer.
You don't learn style from watching people on a runway. Fashion happens every morning when you wake up.
Every woman is not a runway model, nor should she be.
At the start, I had no idea to go into fashion, because I thought people would think I was stupid. I don't worry about those things anymore.
I hated modeling.
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 never had an ambition to go into modeling, originally. I still can't believe how quickly it all took off.
Because I'm on the runway with some of the best models in the industry.
