What inspires you as a designer?
Alan: I think the thing that seeps into our view the most, and is behind every collection, is New York men and women. It is our friends, it is the people we see every day, it is who we are. The way you see real people dressing is the most inspiring when you are creating.
Donna: It is a feeling that you just have. When you go out- its might just be a blur of images and impressions that you are not even aware is effecting you. But you have experienced the feeling of a New Yorker, a well dressed American man or woman. It is so different from a well-dressed European.
