My wife dresses to kill. She cooks the same way.

I’ve always had my own access to the public, because I started off making my clothes for a little shop, and so I’ve always had people buying them. I could always sell a few, even if I couldn’t sell a lot, and somehow my business grew because people happened to like it. I’m in a fortunate position.

Everyone has their style and your style explains a lot about who you are – you feel me? I’ve had style since childhood, so I like to dress how I feel. But maybe I get carried away by some trends.

God and I have a great relationship, but we both see other people.

Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.

Prayer is simply a two-way conversation between you and God.

Well, we’re living in a material world, and I’m a material girl… or boy.

I barely can go shopping for clothes. I find it difficult to walk into stores. The whole thing bores me so much.

I am attracted to people who make this effort in knowing what suits them – they are individual and stylish.

Fashion is architecture: it is a matter of proportions.

I took the vow of celibacy in 1906. I had not shared my thoughts with my wife until then, but only consulted her at the time of making the vow. She had no objection.

If I hadn’t been a woman, I’d be a drag queen for sure. I like all that flair and I’d be dressing up in them high heels and putting on the big hair. I’d be like Ru Paul.

Any man may be in good spirits and good temper when he’s well dressed. There ain’t much credit in that.

I don’t feel very comfortable defending my fashion except to say that people don’t have to buy it. You do have to consume. You have to live. If you’ve got the money to be able to afford it, then it’s really good to buy something from me, but don’t buy too much.

I like a good pair of jeans, but I also like putting on a nice tux. I’d rather go around in a good pair of jeans that you don’t wash every day, because they get more and more comfortable.

My momma didn’t clean up floors so I could be a thug… so I could wear my pants down.

A good wife is one who serves her husband in the morning like a mother does, loves him in the day like a sister does and pleases him like a prostitute in the night.

Buy clothes the size you want to wear.

Designers want me to dress like Spring, in billowing things. I don’t feel like Spring. I feel like a warm red Autumn.

I read so much stuff that black women say, especially about my relationship. ‚Oh, he left his black wife to go be with some exotic chick.‘ First of all, my girl is black: she’s Jamaican.

I love wearing whatever is comfortable, and that could be something which was in trend years ago. So, I don’t follow fashion.

I love soft-cotton white T-shirts.

Even as a kid, I wore J.C. Penney plain-pocket jeans because they were plain pockets. I didn’t want anybody’s name on my backside. I personally don’t like to wear clothing that is named for somebody or has someone’s likeness all over it.

I like the discipline of well-cut, impeccable clothes. I think it’s a very healthy discipline.

Joan of Arc had style. Jesus had style.

I always loved advertising. If I hadn’t been in fashion, I’d have been in advertising.

Love him and let him love you. Do you think anything else under heaven really matters?

I still derive immense pleasure from remembering how many hod-carrying brickies were encouraged to put on lurex tights and mince up and down the high street, having been assured by know-it-alls like me that a smidgen of blusher really attracted the birds.

Obviously black matches with everything.

Cooking certain dishes, like roast pork, reminds me of my mother.

From my standpoint, being an artist, I want to see what the new construction is between artist and audience.

I saw a woman wearing a sweatshirt with Guess on it. I said, Thyroid problem?

My mom had Julia Child and ‚The Fannie Farmer Cookbook‘ on top of the refrigerator, and she had a small repertoire of French dishes.

When I figured out how to work my grill, it was quite a moment. I discovered that summer is a completely different experience when you know how to grill.

My son has followed fashion since he was a punk. He and I agree that fashion is about sex.

Every chef I know, their cholesterol is through the roof. And mine’s not so great.

In large states public education will always be mediocre, for the same reason that in large kitchens the cooking is usually bad.

Fool! Don’t you see now that I could have poisoned you a hundred times had I been able to live without you.

The effect of music on fashion has been immense, especially hip-hop and urban music.

To do a dull thing with style-now that’s what I call art.

It is only the modern that ever becomes old-fashioned.

Governing a great nation is like cooking a small fish – too much handling will spoil it.

Whenever a husband and wife begin to discuss their marriage they are giving evidence at a coroner’s inquest.

If I can get my dress on, my weight is under control.

There are two things that are more difficult than making an after-dinner speech: climbing a wall which is leaning toward you and kissing a girl who is leaning away from you.

‚Love Story‘ is actually about a guy that I almost dated. But when I introduced him to my family and my friends, they all said they didn’t like him. All of them!

I still love football, though, and I think cooking is like football. It’s not a job, it’s a passion. When you become good at it, it’s a dream job and financially you need never to worry. Ever.

More than anything, I like a jacket. You can do anything with a great jacket, the bigger the better. You can have any silhouette underneath. It gives you an attitude. It makes a gown look cool.

I have kind of a funny relationship with movies. I don’t have to see the whole movie to get an impression of it or to let it have an influence on me.

Elegance is refusal.

If someone is right for you, you’ll know it.

I think I would like to go into modelling. Of course, I don’t know how to do it, and wouldn’t be any good at it if I did, so I’m going to employ someone to walk the catwalks on my behalf. It would still be me, of course.

Every generation laughs at the old fashions, but follows religiously the new.

I feel that if Jacques Pepin shows you how to make an omelet, the matter is pretty much settled. That’s God talking.

If you’re too big to fit into fashion, then you just have to do your own fashion.

I’m like 6’2 when I wear heels, so I tend to wear cowboy boots a lot.

People who don’t know the true character of God – who don’t believe He is merciful, gracious and slow to anger – can never have a close, personal, intimate relationship with Him.

When I was fourteen and first started going out, I always wanted to be the opposite of everyone else. So I would go to the club in a polo T-shirt and pants and sneakers and a hat on backward, just so I would not be dressed like other girls.

Once you get a spice in your home, you have it forever. Women never throw out spices. The Egyptians were buried with their spices. I know which one I’m taking with me when I go.

I buy expensive suits. They just look cheap on me.

If you saw Queen Elizabeth it would be amazing, she came from another planet. She was so attractive in what she was wearing.
