You Have To Love What You Do

September 11th Was A Moment When America Had The Sympathy Of The World.

I Think Some Journalists And Bloggers Want Their Articles To Be Clever, And The Way Into That Is By Writing Nasty Things. I Think Our Culture Likes To Be Mean. I Don't Just Find This In Fashion - I Find It In The News. More And More, It Is About Ripping People Apart.

Dressing Effectively Is A Kind Of Excellent Manners.

I Interview These People All The Time Who Come To My Office And Say, "i Want To Be A Fashion Designer." I Tell Them Where They Should Start, And They Say, "i Don't Want To Do That. I Don't Want To Get Anyone Coffee." Don't They Know It Is Great To Get People Coffee?

When I Read About Young Designers Selling 51 Percent Of Their Company To Someone Else, I Cringe. I Want To Say, 'don't Do It - Call Me First.'
