A highlight:

ALIVE: When did it become your business?
JL: I set up this little factory in my basement and started making warm-up pants for the dance school I went to. I designed them and sold them for $35 a pair, which was a major mistake; they were way too much work to sell for $35 a pair. It was a huge undertaking and so I had no life, and my boyfriend broke up with me because I spent no time with him. So, yeah, I've been a workaholic since a very young age.

Jillian and Lewaa will also be ringing the NASDAQ bell during Fashion Week.
