spoke to him in Italian! It was so funny. I said
grazie, grazie [Laughs].

With your fabulous career, what moment stands
out for you? For me to take over Fifth Avenue
during Fashion Week is the most insane, ama-
zing story in the world, and to be able to express
my creativity and dreams in the windows of
Bergdorf Goodman! Growing up looking at
those windows as the chic quintessential mes-
sage in the power of New York fashion and
knowing all the designers that have been in the
windows…it was a huge honor. They never gave
such a thing to anyone in a hundred years.

People take fashion so seriously and you’re just
having fun with it. Where do you get your inspi-
ration? I honestly don’t know. It comes from
everything: a book, Instagram, history, fashion,
anything. I research a lot. If I don’t do anything,
I’m not creative. The work feeds itself. It’s
always been like this since I was very young, so
it’s like training, and the more you do it the
stronger it becomes.

What about music? What do you like to listen
to? Whatever is playing at the moment, but I
have a lot of Cher, I tell you that. I love Cher!
[Laughs]. And always Kanye, always Rihanna.

You live between Stockholm and New York.
Which place do you call home? Both, and now
also London, but Stockholm is my private life,
only for me.

Now that you’re back in Stockholm with your
husband Oscar, is there any possibility of Bat
Gio babies? Working on it, working on it! See if
it comes. We’re having too much fun at the
moment [Laughs].

Where are you headed professionally? I’m going
to be doing more creative direction projects.
Maybe more books. I enjoyed the process and I
liked the concept. I’d like to continue in that
direction. n
