I spent five weeks in a coma, and I couldn't walk. And I couldn't talk. And I thought to myself, what was I going to do? The 67-year-old fashion industry veteran added: I'm not ashamed to say that I cried."
"I miss being the queen of the runway. The catwalks, of course. I'm the person who taught models how to walk. I taught models how to walk, he said in the Netflix documentary that dropped Monday."
