Reed Krakoff quotes:

Museums that aren't perfect are the ones that I love. Museums that aren't overdesigned. I always like to visit the strange, odd museums. In New York, the Frick is absolutely my favorite, favorite place because I like to think that it was someone's home not that long ago.

One can never have too many books.

The collection under my name is an exciting opportunity to really express my own aesthetic and connect with a very different consumer.

When a silhouette or shape is as beautiful as it is functional and relevant, that's true luxury.
