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.
David BowieI wouldn’t wanna go out not looking like the Dolly people have come to know, because I’ve come to know her that way, too.
Dolly PartonClothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society.
Mark TwainThe engineering is long gone in most PC companies. In the consumer electronics companies, they don’t understand the software parts of it. And so you really can’t make the products that you can make at Apple anywhere else right now. Apple’s the only company that has everything under one roof.
Steve JobsFashion fades, only style remains the same.
Coco ChanelI’ve always been amazed by Da Vinci, because he worked out science on his own. He would work by drawing things and writing down his ideas. Of course, he designed all sorts of flying machines way before you could actually build something like that.
Bill GatesDoing collections, doing fashion is like a non-stop dialogue.
Karl LagerfeldI always loved advertising. If I hadn’t been in fashion, I’d have been in advertising.
Karl LagerfeldI’m easy to look like, so there are lots and lots of Dolly look-alikes.
Dolly PartonI wear the national dress because it is the most natural and the most becoming for an Indian.
Mahatma GandhiI enjoy wearing pins, and nobody tells me to do it.
Madeleine AlbrightMy son has followed fashion since he was a punk. He and I agree that fashion is about sex.
Vivienne WestwoodI modelled my looks on the town tramp.
Dolly PartonThe difference between humans and other mammals is that we know how to accessorize.
Madeleine AlbrightI 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.‘
Dolly PartonWe know but a few men, a great many coats and breeches.
Henry David ThoreauThere are charms made only for distant admiration.
Samuel JohnsonIn 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.
Alexander PopeFashion is only the attempt to realize art in living forms and social intercourse.
Francis BaconWe based the look on rock ‚n roll right from the beginning.
Vivienne WestwoodI don’t spend my time pontificating about high-concept things; I spend my time solving engineering and manufacturing problems.
Elon MuskThe French have got taste.
Vivienne WestwoodMy clothes are very popular in Japan.
Vivienne WestwoodEngineering didn’t take to me. And what saved me and kept me in college was I ran into ROTC cadets who were in a fraternity called The Pershing Rifles. And I found my place. I found discipline. I found structure. I found people that were like me and I liked.
Colin PowellIn a meat-eating world, wearing leather for shoes and clothes and even handbags, the discussion of fur is childish.
Karl LagerfeldFashion has become so whatever. I don’t think there are any stones left to unturn.
Vivienne WestwoodI cap myself when I shop; I don’t like to spend extravagant amounts on clothes. But, I do get lent clothes for events, it’s scary to wear something so expensive, but I feel really pampered.
Taylor SwiftT-shirts for ten dollars are even more fashion today than expensive fashion.
Karl LagerfeldEat to please thyself, but dress to please others.
Benjamin FranklinI think dress, hairstyle and make-up are the crucial factors in projecting an attractive persona and give one the chance to enhance one’s best physical features.
Vivienne WestwoodFashion is very important. It is life-enhancing and, like everything that gives pleasure, it is worth doing well.
Vivienne WestwoodWe’re so trendy we can’t even escape ourselves.
Kurt CobainIt was a strike against me that I didn’t wear baggy jeans and jerseys and that I never hustled, never sold drugs.
Kanye WestNo change in musical style will survive unless it is accompanied by a change in clothing style. Rock is to dress up to.
Frank ZappaThe connection between dress and war is not far to seek; your finest clothes are those you wear as soldiers.
Virginia WoolfI see so many guys, really athletic guys, wearing pleats and I just shake my head. Like, Tiger Woods used to wear pleated pants! I’m like, ‚C’mon, Tiger!‘
Tom BradyWhen I was 8 years old, it mattered what my favorite singer said and wore and expressed opinions about.
Taylor SwiftI go to all these photo shoots, and each time I figure out something new about myself and what I want to wear.
Taylor SwiftMy performance outfits are very Marie Antoinette, sparkly corsets… and full skirts. And then we do another look that’s ’50s-inspired. Poufy skirts, big bows. Very fun, girlie and young, but otherwise, when I’m not in costume, I dress really normal.
Ariana GrandeI like to be able to wear something that is appropriate for wherever the day takes me: to work, on a hike and then out to dinner. I like to take the formality out of the day’s schedule and be ready for any off-road detour.
Matthew McConaugheyI have a hat. It is graceful and feminine and give me a certain dignity, as if I were attending a state funeral or something. Someday I may get up enough courage to wear it, instead of carrying it.
Erma BombeckEveryone looks at your watch and it represents who you are, your values and your personal style.
Kobe BryantPerhaps 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.
Oscar WildeI love Dolce & Gabbana. I love Versace. I love the crazy, more eccentric stuff.
Lady GagaI would like to be a one-man multinational fashion phenomenon.
Karl LagerfeldThe sexiest thing that a woman can do, wear, and say all fall under one word to me: subtlety. To be subtle in the things that she does and the things she says and the things she wears – I appreciate the details.
Dwayne JohnsonI’m big on what’s in good taste.
Frank OceanFor my generation, the bomber jacket is like a replacement for the suit jacket. It’s a piece that men wear every day, and it’s something that I would wear for any occasion, whether it’s on the street or going to an awards ceremony.
The WeekndI like sweaters. I have a sweater obsession, I guess.
DrakeProbably my first couple years in the league, I started paying more attention to what I was wearing. Once I got a few bucks in my pocket and I could afford some nice things, and you get to go, ‚OK, let’s try some of these things.‘ And once you try something you like, you probably don’t change it much.
Tom BradyI 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.
Vivienne WestwoodI barely can go shopping for clothes. I find it difficult to walk into stores. The whole thing bores me so much.
Paul AusterI can tell you all kinds of moral tales, but fashion and reality are vaguely different.
Karl LagerfeldDon’t just eat McDonald’s, get something a bit better. Eat a salad. That’s what fashion is. It’s something that is a bit better.
Vivienne WestwoodGreat men are seldom over-scrupulous in the arrangement of their attire.
Charles DickensI thought I would dress in baggy pants, big shoes, a cane and a derby hat. everything a contradiction: the pants baggy, the coat tight, the hat small and the shoes large.
Charlie ChaplinI 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.
Tom BradyMy background educationally is physics and economics, and I grew up in sort of an engineering environment – my father is an electromechanical engineer. And so there were lots of engineery things around me.
Elon MuskI love dresses, and I’ve definitely thought about designing them someday. I just want to make sure that I wait until the time is perfect and I can do it right.
Taylor SwiftI think style is being so comfortable and confident in what you’re wearing. That’s what style is, ‚cause everybody’s got different style.
Tom Brady
