I come from very humble origins, so the last thing I would ever do is to look down my nose at people who can't afford to come here to my shop.

I can think of a lot of women clients of mine who are well into their 50s or 60s who are still quintessentially very elegant.

I mean, you can't walk down the aisle in Westminster Abbey in a strapless dress, it just won't happen - it has to suit the grandeur of that aisle, it's enormous.

My aim is to make you look the best you can and if that means a little bit of internal pulling and hoisting up, then so be it.

We're into Nicole Kidmans, rather than the young girl who just got married in a tracksuit.

The first thing that I do when I come out every night is to look at the faces in front of me, very individually.
