“One of my favorite quotes is by CoCo Chanel. She said, ‘Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.’ I truly believe in this. It’s something that motivates me as a designer and why I find life so exhilarating.”

"The attention to detail and design elements utilized by Cirque du Soleil in its productions is what really fascinated me and allowed me to follow my own vision for the brand,” states Ms. Sangollo.
