Quote by Elizabeth Olsen

“I like being able to play make believe as my job. I think I played make-believe growing up a little too long - probably to an inappropriate age.

“I never designed before. I wasn't formally trained in design, I went to photography school at the ICP. But over time, I taught myself to draw, and I studied different techniques, various hemlines, and then I would take the ideas to a manufacturer and a patternmaker and have them produced into garments.”
