New York Fashion Week, Karen Walker show

PR, Lucire Magazine

What did you dress like when you were 13? Whatever I felt like. I loved coordinating my own outfits.
You're from New Zealand. As a Kiwi, how do you feel about Karen Walker? Oh I love her. This is the show I had to come to. I was here, like,
half an hour early—got to go back stage and got a photo with her.
She's my favorite. She's doing so well. Right now I'm wearing Karen,
Karen and Karen. Right now my wardrobe's not pure Karen, but getting
there. I've got a lot of her dresses—not that they get to see New York
City that much.
Where are you off to next? Well, I'm in New York for Fashion Week, but I'm off to London in a few hours—just enough time to catch this show. I wouldn't have missed it for anything.
If your style were an animal, what would it be? I'm not sure. What animal likes to dress up?
Maybe a unicorn. Okay. I'll be a unicorn.
