A Moment With:
Describe your holiday wardrobe.
Well what I've done in the past year is collect a really good vintage stash of dresses, mostly from the 60s and 70s. Brocades and florals, lots of color, and when I go to non-work-related parties, I can actually wear them.
And your beauty routine?
Stays the same. Red lipstick. Always red lipstick.
And redheads. You love Karen Elson!
Yes, she was with me from the first season, the first time I showed, we had her.
Will she still walk now that she's pregnant?
I don't know! But you know I'm from Detroit, right? So the last time I was back, I went to Jack White's house to see her. It was great.
No!
Yes, I think he is so talented, and I saw them both. I love the White Stripes, their new album is so great. I think the Blue Orchid video is so great, very stylish. I love it.
What else do you love right now?
Well, for Fall '06, I'm trying not to do anything I'm known for: no flowers, no ruffles. I want to do something different. Not minimalist, but different. More tailored. I'm loving tailored and I'm loving classic, so I don't know! We just got in the fabrics, so we'll see.
