Great men are seldom over-scrupulous in the arrangement of their attire.

Can anything be so elegant as to have few wants, and to serve them one’s self?

I like to look good, my friend.

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

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

Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society.

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

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

My concern today is not with the length of a person’s hair but with his conduct.

I urge everyone to be trendsetters for Azza Suleiman. Let’s make it one fashion which everyone will want to follow.

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

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

A lot of the reason my look is the way it is, is because it’s really easy to put on a sundress every night if I have to perform – or just wear jeans every day and a flannel or something.

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

The difference between humans and other mammals is that we know how to accessorize.

I have no models in Japanese literature. I created my own style, my own way.

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.

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

Fashion is made to become unfashionable.

I don’t like to write like God. It is only because you never do it, though, that the critics think you can’t do it.

When you’re 25 or 30, you know, you can’t wear lime-green eye shadow anymore.

Fashion fades, only style remains the same.

It is not possible for a man to be elegant without a touch of femininity.

I just grew the hair on my back. Facial hair just wasn’t appealing to me. I liked it on my back, though.

With a suit, always wear big British shoes, the ones with large welts. There’s nothing worse than dainty little Italian jobs at the end of the leg line.

I think I have something tonight that’s not quite correct for evening wear. Blue suede shoes.

The connection between dress and war is not far to seek; your finest clothes are those you wear as soldiers.

I don’t feel comfortable defending my clothes. But if you’ve got the money to afford them, then buy something from me. Just don’t buy too much.

We’re so trendy we can’t even escape ourselves.

There is much to support the view that it is clothes that wear us, and not we, them; we may make them take the mould of arm or breast, but they mould our hearts, our brains, our tongues to their liking.

I modelled my looks on the town tramp.

Doing collections, doing fashion is like a non-stop dialogue.

Fashion is that thing that saved me from being sad.

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

When I get dressed, it’s like freestyling.

When it comes down to it, glam rock was all very amusing. At the time, it was funny, then a few years later it became sort of serious-looking and a bit foreboding.

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

Dressing up is a bore. At a certain age, you decorate yourself to attract the opposite sex, and at a certain age, I did that. But I’m past that age.

In history people dressed much better than we do today.

My style influences my music and everything around me.

Any colour – so long as it’s black.

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

Luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury.

I like being comfortable at airports, in flip-flops with no jewelry on.

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.

Joan of Arc had style. Jesus had style.

I said I would never wear my gold again because it would be insensitive and disrespectful to all the people who died and lost everything in Katrina.

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

Back in the day, I would wear up to 45 pounds of gold. It would take me four hours to get dressed!

Man, the living creature, the creating individual, is always more important than any established style or system.

I’ve worn dresses from all different price ranges, and the thing that couture dresses have in common is that the fit is amazing.

I’m 5’11, so when I wear heels, it’s definitely a really good view that I have. I’m, like, 6’2 when I wear heels, so I tend to wear cowboy boots a lot.

I always say that women should wear whatever makes them feel good about themselves. That’s what I always try to do.

I wear a hat on stage so that people won’t be blinded by the reflection from my head. Also, if I don’t wear a hat, there’s no way that the hat can be at that level by itself on the stage.

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?‘

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

Buy clothes the size you want to wear.

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.

My clothes have always got a very strong dynamic rapport with the body – they are very body conscious, they help you to look glamorous, more hourglass, more woman.

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

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.
