Her quote: "When I design a wedding dress with a bustle, it has to be one the bride can dance in. I love the idea that something is practical and still looks great."; "I see myself as a true modernist. Even when I do a traditional gown, I give it a modern twist. I go to the past for research. I need to know what came before so I can break the rules."; "Fashion offers no greater challenge than finding what works for night without looking like you are wearing a costume."; "A woman is never sexier than when she is comfortable in her clothes."
