My philosophy is this: Do not tamper with the anatomy of a woman's body; do not camouflage it.
Looks, health and elegance are what counts. Someone can look wonderful in a sweatsuit.

I drive my own horses in a race. And I always have.

In our society, everyone wants to be a celebrity overnight.
I've been around tennis, and I have a feeling for the sport. I still play tennis, and I can still do a lot of harm to a lot of people.
At the very beginning of my career, when I opened my business in Italy, I was also a ranked tennis player. I had won many tournaments. To be an athlete was my first choice. Second choice: designer. However! There was more money in being a designer at that time.
Every poor designer can go with things that are popular at the moment.
