I always joke deep down I'm really a teenage girl on the inside.

When I first came to New York, I would scream like a girl and run to the other side of the street if there was a pigeon. Now I can face off with a pigeon.

I take stuff from real life and try to make a character out of it. And I try to live the world of the characters a little bit.

I'd date someone younger or older; age doesn't matter to me. Or looks, really - it's all about maturity.

It would be much easier to just make black, brown and beige clothes. But I do not see the world in black and white and beige. I find colors incredibly important.
