SOUNDBITE (English) Michael Kors, designer:
"Well, you know, first off, I am the biggest movie, theater and music fan in the world. So I think it's sort of a good tennis volley between me and all of these incredibly talented people. But I think a lot of people, you know, a lot of people think that if you're a celebrity. Oh, you know, you don't care about comfort. You're so super confident. And I have to say, I think it's actually a fallacy because it's very difficult to hit the red carpet and you want to feel confident. You want to feel comfortable. I think that, you know, I dress such a wide variety of people, you know, from 18 to 80. We really run the gamut and they know that I'm really always thinking about them."

SOUNDBITE (English) Michael Kors, designer:
"A lot of designers say this, but my mother truly was, you know, my ultimate muse, my ultimate supporter. And I think that, you know, she and I travelled the world together and I have so many incredible memories of holidays with her. And she was a woman who broke the rules. So, you know, she wore hot pants to the office. She tried out for the NFL. She modelled. I mean, she did. She did quite a few different things in her life. And I think she always had fun with fashion and she really knew herself. And I think you'll see that today."
