So that's what we're doing.
And that's what you're seeing working.
That's such a powerful place to talk.
Lou's a mentor, a dear friend.
I had the opportunity to be hired by Lou.
I worked with him for many years.
He's still somebody I talk to often.
We launched his book party.
at Coach when it first came out.
We talk a lot about balancing logic and magic, and that's the art.
You want to hear from the consumer, but I don't want the consumer to create a back, okay?
We'll get their input, we'll co-create with them.
But we have an amazing creative director, amazing designers and merchants.
I want them to be informed.
But ultimately, I don't want to outsource our commercial judgment or our business judgment or our creative judgment.
And finding that balance is where the magic takes place.
Yeah, so what we do, again, Lou said it, we have to remain curious.
Also, what I often talk about, we have to remain humble.
We don't have all the answers.
We have a sense of where fashion is going.
