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

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

Elegance is usually confused with superficiality, fashion, lack of depth. This is a serious mistake: human beings need to have elegance in their actions and in their posture because this word is synonymous with good taste, amiability, equilibrium and harmony.

I don’t care how many beauty treatments you have, I don’t care which bag you’re carrying – you have to have a dress.

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

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.

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

You’d be surprised how much it costs to look this cheap!

My style has always been my own, just like my flow and style.

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

I started wearing Ugg when I was, like, 13 or 14, in high school, and my mom got me a pair for Christmas one year.

I always wear the kind of stuff that makes you overheat and die.

I didn’t used to wear a watch. Now I have a SPOT watch, which I wear all the time.

Pop music can absorb so many peculiar talents, ranging from the completely nonmusical poseur who just uses music as a kind of springboard for a sense of style, to people who just love putting all that complicated stuff together, brick by brick, on their computers, to people like me who like playing conceptual games and being surprised.

Teach us that wealth is not elegance, that profusion is not magnificence, that splendor is not beauty.

I like to look good, my friend.

Oh yes, I love to do shoes. I’m not a fetishist but I love to do shoes.

In Italy they take cheap cloth and make it look expensive, but I take expensive cloth and make it look cheap. They just don’t understand.

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

I think any man who lets a woman pick what he should wear… I mean, you gotta draw the line somewhere as a man. I see these guys, ‚My wife told me to wear this!‘ And I just shake my head.

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.

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

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 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.

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

No architecture is so haughty as that which is simple.

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

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

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.

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

A lot of the jewelry that I wear are fan gifts because they’re so awesome and they give me great presents.

All styles are good except the tiresome kind.

When I write, the story is always uppermost in my mind, and I feel that everything must be sacrificed to it. All elegant passages, all the curious details, all the so-called beautiful writing – if they are not truly relevant to what I am trying to say, then they have to go.

We know but a few men, a great many coats and breeches.

Nothing is more obstinate than a fashionable consensus.

Elegance is not the prerogative of those who have just escaped from adolescence, but of those who have already taken possession of their future.

I wear the same outfit or, at least, a different copy of it almost every day.

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

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

If I’m in a bad mood, or if I’m uncomfortable, it’s probably what I’m wearing that’s making me feel that way.

I love ripped jeans! They are flattering. I’m very petite, so I think they make my butt look lovely.

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

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

I like sweaters. I have a sweater obsession, I guess.

There have been several Duchesses of Westminster but there is only one Chanel!

If you gonna wear the mohawk, you stick with it. You don’t just be dibby-dabbing. You make up your mind.

I never look at fashion magazines. I find them incredibly boring.

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

I worked out a lot before I was 20. I was hard underneath. I had just a little padding. I was quilted. Always Chanel.

I love Dolce & Gabbana. I love Versace. I love the crazy, more eccentric stuff.

All the awards in the world, you can get into all the nightclubs, they’ll send you the nicest clothes. Nothing better than walking into your dad’s restaurant and seeing a smile on his face and knowing that your mom and dad and your sister are real proud of you.

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 very rarely watch my own fashion shows, but the makeup for my Fall 2011 show was just brilliant.

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

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

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

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

I wear wigs all the time on shows, and every day when I’m in public, at Dollywood. People say, ‚How many wigs do you have?‘ And I say, ‚Well, at least 365 because I wear at least one a day.‘

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

I liked watching Rossi, his style, his colours and everything. He was someone I looked up to and until now he is still my only hero. He is the king of motorbikes and most people like Rossi mainly because he comes across as a pretty fun and good character. He is cool and has a good style and look.

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.
