The fashion sector is very hot in New York, especially the fashion tech sector, and a lot of women have been the leaders in the industry.

If all purchases are spontaneous and simply driven by what is seen and loved, there is a high risk of ending up with 10 cocktail dresses and no outfits for work.

We use digitisation and 3D-render programs such as Optitex and ClO3D to create the silhouettes, but we invented our system to let users mix and match components in real time.

A brand can have huge hype but still only be a tiny business.

A lot of people made their first luxury fashion purchase, but at a discount. And that made it an easier purchasing decision.

As a customer, I would see pieces that I loved and then find out they weren't being made because no store had ordered them.

As in many other industries, the luxury fashion consumer increasingly desires to put a personal stamp on important purchases.

Daft Punk's 'One More Time' remains one of my favorite 'getting ready to go out tonight' songs.

Designers were saying to me that they didn't have a place to sell their special pieces from the runway.

Having trained as a dancer growing up, I love any dance related events.

I consider myself to be a citizen of the world.

I first met Michael Angel when he came to my office with a box of prints and asked me whether I thought he should make dresses from the prints.

I like feminine suits with unexpected details.

I never wear pants; I only wear dresses.

I try not to take much time off for lunch, so I usually end up with a tossed salad from the local deli.

I was eager to see what Swedish design had to offer and get a sense of its fashion culture, and Altewai Saome was the perfect introduction.

It is always a pleasure to see what NYC, London, Paris and Milan have to offer.

Moda Operandi will change the face of luxury e-commerce by directly connecting brands with the most discerning shoppers around the world.

Overall, I was extremely impressed with the fashion scene that Stockholm has to offer, both on and off the runways.

People are saying fashion week is no longer just a press event, it has become a shopping event because of us.

The Stockholm street style is distinctive, with ensembles that exemplify the city's understated elegance.

There were no tourists. Beer was illegal. There was only government television and no television on Thursdays or in the summer.

We want every woman to have something unique, a wardrobe she can really make her own.

While my trips are most often focused on business, I always try to take some time to experience the local culture.

As I have written before, one of my favorite parts of my job as CEO of Moda Operandi is the opportunity I get to explore international fashion scenes to discover new talent, and then being able to introduce these designers to our community of fashion-savvy customers worldwide.
