Walk this way
New York has always evoked a great sense of excitement for me. What I love most about the city is the energy of its eclectic people. On one of my very first trips, I met the legendary Diana Vreeland, who was then editor-in-chief of Vogue. I was armed with my portfolio of theatrical sketches and in a complete state of nerves. She took one look, zeroed in on a sandal decorated with ivy and cherries, and said: “Focus on the extremities, young man! Do shoes!” Her advice changed my life forever and set me on a path that I am still walking today.
