I started out as a child actor. Back then, I didn't have a manager or company, and I couldn't even dream of having a stylist. My mom made and bought the clothes I would wear. I think that was probably when I first got into fashion.
I'm interested in every aspect of fashion. I think it's in my bones. When I was younger I used to be my mum's stylist, picking things out for her to wear. I'd say to her, 'If anybody asks you who styled you tonight say, 'Georgia.'
My love of fashion stemmed from my mother's passion for it.
It was definitely my grandmother who introduced me to fashion.
Honestly my style sense, I guess, started in high school when I was a volleyball player. That was just what I wore: leggings every single day with my sports bra so I didn't have to change into it in the girls' gym locker room and that's kind of how it started.
Growing up in Beirut, I used to go to the souks with my mother to buy fabrics... I understood fashion at an early age, and my first designs were when I was five.
I can say, let's go to the DNA of the brand and find something that I can introduce into my work. It's part of the patrimony of fashion.
I do not experiment very much and prefer the kind of clothes that Sabyasachi designs - they are rooted in our traditions and yet are very modern. I think it has something to do with my growing-up years and the kind of clothes I saw around me.
It's really important to me to stick to my roots by doing what's West Coast: wearing T-shirts and shorts.
Without foundations, there can be no fashion.
Ever since I was a little girl, I always loved fashion. I would watch my mother get dressed and suggest things she should wear.
