About John Fairchild: John Fairchild is a retired American basketball player.
I find it an exhausting experience, personally, to go to a party every night.
People say 'Women's Wear' is a scandalous, gossipy publication. Sure we have gossip; we also have some very, very solid business stories. We are a creation of this business, which is fast, mean, tough, sometimes artistic, sometimes horrible.
My new life is being with my wife without any interference, and the children come see us every once in a while.
I have learned in fashion to be a little savage.
I can't stand the idea of missing something. I've got to know what's going on - it's like an animal instinct with me.
At 'Women's Wear', I always said, 'Get it first - get the bacon.'
