I want to be as feminine and classic as possible.
Trixie is like a hyper-feminine child's toy who has it all. I love looking like I'm from Toys 'R Us but serving off-color comedy.
I love to design for women, it's really open and very free. I always think of my friends. I think of both fictitious characters, real people from the past and the present. I am not a woman, but I find women so beautiful and so fascinating.
My work is not about 'form follows function,' but 'form follows beauty' or, even better, 'form follows feminine.'
Every time I attempt something feminine, I can't resist adding Amazon-inspired designs.
Some ladies like muscle.
Personally, I've always loved the curvy look.
Happiness lends poetic charms to woman, and dress adorns her like a delicate tinge of rouge.
From an early age, I was very interested in all things fashion... and the change from tomboy to ultrafeminine glamour in old films. There was a Doris Day film I loved: 'Calamity Jane.'
Berthe Morisot was a painter full of eighteenth-century delicacy and grace; in a word, the last elegant and 'feminine' artists since Fragonard.
I love pink, it's so girly!
I've been known to create clothes that are very formfitting and feminine.
I'm a woman designing for women, and there are so many layers to that. On the one hand, it brings an effortlessness, but it also means that I think and overthink every detail, whether it's physical or mental or even - in some sense - spiritual.
Barbies, nails, and fashion - I'll take everything in baby pink, please.
The piles of makeup and the insistence on frills and ribbons and bows was not at all attuned to my feminist views.
I love anything really feminine. I love any sort of girly detail - anything with a bow or a heart on it, I'm immediately in love with.
Girls aren't beautiful, they're pretty. Beautiful is too heavy a word to assign to a girl. Women are beautiful because their faces show that they know they have lost something and picked up something else.
I love the idea of the 'vignette,' which is associated with the decorative, illustrative, small, and thus with the feminine, and thus easily maligned. I mean, Emily Dickinson wrote vignettes, right?
