  2. Betsey Johnson “ Making clothes involves what I like color, pattern, shape, and movement. I like the everyday process, the people, the pressure, the surprise of seeing work come alive walking and dancing around strangers. Like red lipstick on the mouth, my products wake up and brighten and bring the wearer to life, drawing attention to her beauty and specialness, her moods and movements, her dream and fantasies.” -Betsey Johnson
