What's it like to be a celebrity to the women who wear your shoes?
I love it, it's great. It's very much like an author. I'm one of those very famous people that no one knows what I look like - until now, of course. It's a great kind of celebrity. The people, also, when they find out it's me, there's a bond because they wear so many of my shoes. It's like a favorite author, nobody knows what he looks like, but you've read his books and you feel like you know him. It's not like a movie star or TV star, it's quite different. It's not as glamorous, but it's very rewarding, and I get it all the time: airplanes, hotels, banks, motor vehicle bureau. It's incredible.
