The stylish kids on the street, they’re the ones that set the trends. The designers see what they’re doing and go and design their line and sell it back to the same kids, and it’s like, why not go directly to the source?

People see me on the street, and they point to me, and they’re like, ‚Hey! All right, all right, all right!‘

I love soft-cotton white T-shirts.

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.

In history people dressed much better than we do today.

The concept of commercialism in the fashion and art world is looked down upon. You know, just to think, ‚What amount of creativity does it take to make something that masses of people like?‘ And, ‚How does creativity apply across the board?‘

Fashion is merely an opinion. And I’ve got a lot of opinions.

Fashion is only the attempt to realize art in living forms and social intercourse.

I think tattoos are horrible. It’s like living in a Pucci dress full-time.

Clothes if they are not well cut, you can kill nobody. A building poorly built can kill people. It’s a much more difficult work. I would not compare myself with that.

Fashion is made to become unfashionable.

We based the look on rock ‚n roll right from the beginning.

In a sense I portray myself in a very androgynous way, and I love androgyny.

No change in musical style will survive unless it is accompanied by a change in clothing style. Rock is to dress up to.

I like to look good, my friend.

I can tell you all kinds of moral tales, but fashion and reality are vaguely different.

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

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

It costs a lot of money to look this cheap.

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

My clothes are very popular in Japan.

T-shirts for ten dollars are even more fashion today than expensive fashion.

The finest clothing made is a person’s own skin, but, of course, society demands something more than this.

Fashion is an imposition, a reign on freedom.

Journalists are usually quite jealous people, especially of intellectuals who are supposed to be in fashion.

The most important thing I can tell you about aging is this: If you really feel that you want to have an off-the-shoulder blouse and some big beads and thong sandals and a dirndl skirt and a magnolia in your hair, do it. Even if you’re wrinkled.

At one time, I was very angry. I even treated fashion like a kind of crusade: you were either with us or against us, that kind of feeling. Now I know we need ideas, not kicking down a door.

I’m not big on flak jackets and tie-dyed shirts. You know, that’s not me.

There are charms made only for distant admiration.

It was a strike against me that I didn’t wear baggy jeans and jerseys and that I never hustled, never sold drugs.

In words, as fashions, the same rule will hold; Alike fantastic, if too new, or old: Be not the first by whom the new are tried, Nor yet the last to lay the old aside.

For me, bomber jackets are smart, but they are also street and have a lot of attitude.

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.

Good humor is one of the best articles of dress one can wear in society.

Perhaps one of the most difficult things for us to do is to choose a notable and joyous dress for men. There would be more joy in life if we were to accustom ourselves to use all the beautiful colours we can in fashioning our own clothes.

I don’t care if you get up in the morning and don’t wash, don’t put any make-up on, don’t do your hair, even, but you have to have clothes if you want to look different.

I love a pair of sexy heels with jeans, a nice jacket, or a little dress.

Stylistically, I love make-up. I love doing my own make-up and stuff, but clothes-wise, I actually didn’t ever really care. Initially the fashion world was more interested in me than the music world, which was strange when I first started singing.

I like a colorful sock. I’m a sock man.

I’m big on what’s in good taste.

All styles are good except the tiresome kind.

I try not to go around looking like a hag.

Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world.

When the NBA adopted their uniform that they had to wear, I thought that was very interesting. And you see the way NBA players dress: It’s very cool.

I’m not trying to be fashionable. Never was!

I think I’ve revived the costume-jewelry industry.

I’m mainstream.

Fashion is here to help make people look very important. If they have good taste and choose what suits them, I give them options on how they can do that. It’s always sexy, and it’s always with the same result: making women look fantastic.

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

Sometimes I can’t figure designers out. It’s as if they flunked human anatomy.

Many parents and teachers have become irritated to the point of distraction at the way the weed-style growth of ‚like‘ has spread through the idiom of the young. And it’s true that in some cases the term has become simultaneously a crutch and a tic, driving out the rest of the vocabulary as candy expels vegetables.

I was impressed with what someone like Karl Lagerfeld built and did and the house that he made, but there was never really a female figure I wanted to emulate.

I have too many clothes, I have too many options.

I think style is being so comfortable and confident in what you’re wearing. That’s what style is, ‚cause everybody’s got different style.

Everything popular is wrong.

It’s every girl’s dream to be a cover girl!

Britishness is just a way of putting things together and a certain don’t care attitude about clothes. You don’t care, you just do it and it looks great.

Be careless in your dress if you must, but keep a tidy soul.

Liverpool people are famous for liking clothes and fashion; they are very social and lively people, and we know that they like clothes.

I would like to be a one-man multinational fashion phenomenon.

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.
