I like the challenge of dressing ladies in lots of different things.
My job is to make sure there's something about each dress that ignites the bride's imagination.
I'm so fond of abstract design in the style of Vanderbilt and David Hicks and that whole 1970s era. They took the 1930s and gave it a bit of technicolour.
We've been seeing a lot of brides buying two dresses for their wedding, especially in America, and a lot of brides are talking about changing shoes halfway through. It is a very long day to be wearing one pair of shoes, however comfortable they are. It is about marrying that combination of style and comfort together.
I felt my design point of view was more welcomed in New York, that I could show my collections in the way I wanted to show them.
Having made all the decisions, I think a wedding day is a day when you want to forget what you are wearing and be in the moment.
Young girls - like friends of my daughter's - always ask if we do prom dresses, and we do dresses that would be lovely, but £2,000 isn't realistic for most girls. The Debenhams collection will hopefully be great for that sort of event because the price point is much lower.
The Wonderstar collection is a fantastic fusion of Hollywood glamour and Wonderbra's technical genius.
I have always loved to create pieces that are special, unique. It's very important to me that the dress means something to someone. I've no real interest in making something that's an everyday item.
I really enjoy the diversity of the people we dress.
Nobody is going to buy one of our dresses because it will do, or as something to hide away in their wardrobe and wear at some dimly undetermined point. They always have an event of some kind in mind. They want to walk in the room and for everybody to think how amazing they look. That's the job, really.
I play with those two eras a lot. The '70s did actually take quite a lot inspiration from the '30s. I love the '70s, the bold color. There's something very sophisticated about it now, looking back.
I do think there is a bit of Liberace in me.
I like to come home and completely forget about work.
I like the American style. I love L.A. They have a completely different way of dressing.
I think in L.A., every night they're going out somewhere. So you have this culture of dressing up.
Our customers are worldwide themselves - the Middle East, the Far East, Europe.
Most of our customers want something glamorous. They want to be looked at, but not for the wrong reasons.
I love travelling and use my time abroad to be inspired.
I always love the domineering, slightly wicked women on screen.
