I wouldn’t wear tiny amounts of clothing in my real life so I don’t think it’s necessary to wear that stuff in photo-shoots.

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

I was the first person to have a punk rock hairstyle.

My fans kept asking where they could get clothes like ‚Destiny’s Child’s‘, so it was only natural for us to do a clothing line. I was adamant about not putting my name on something that I didn’t love.

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.

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

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

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.

Look for the woman in the dress. If there is no woman, there is no dress.

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 just dress like… I’m an old black man. Sorry! Like I’m an old Jewish black man. I just dress like it’s still the ’50s.

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

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.

When I am putting looks together, I dare myself to make something work. I always look for the most interesting silhouette or something that’s a little off, but I have to figure it out. I have to make it me. I think that’s the thrill in fashion.

Just because I managed to do a little something, I don’t want anyone back home to think I got the big head.

Modesty is not only an ornament, but also a guard to virtue.

When I was with Andy Warhol, I thought, ‚God, his wig looks cheaper than mine!‘

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

Mr. Attlee is a very modest man. Indeed he has a lot to be modest about.

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

What do I wear in bed? Why, Chanel No. 5, of course.

It never mattered to me that people in school didn’t think that country music was cool, and they made fun of me for it – though it did matter to me that I was not wearing the clothes that everybody was wearing at that moment. But at some point, I was just like, ‚I like wearing sundresses and cowboy boots.‘

It is always better to be slightly underdressed.

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

Modesty is a learned affectation. And as soon as life slams the modest person against the wall, that modesty drops.

I’m big on what’s in good taste.

At twelve I looked like a girl of seventeen. My body was developed and shapely. I still wore the blue dress and the blouse the orphanage provided. They made me look like an overgrown lummox.

Fresh sneakers are important on a man. It’s like a new pair of boxers or a new pair of socks.

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.

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

I’m not sure what I think about current fashion, though. A few years ago, I would have said it’s really, really bad and you hardly ever see anybody looking good. There must be some very good designers in the world.

I was walking down the street wearing glasses when the prescription ran out.

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

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.

Honestly, I like everything, boyish girls, girlish boys, the heavy and the skinny.

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

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

I love soft-cotton white T-shirts.

I’m a really artistic person, and so, with the live stuff, there’s a lot that I think is really cool. Beyonce and Rihanna have all these dancers. So with the live costumes and video costumes, I’d really like to have my vision. The way that I want people to dress is very specific. I love fashion.

I wear the national dress because it is the most natural and the most becoming for an Indian.

The reason why I wear gold – I wear gold for three reasons. One, when Jesus was born, three wise men came from the east: one brought frankincense, one brought myrrh, the other one brought gold. The second reason I wear gold is I can afford it. The third reason I wear it, it’s symbolic of my African heritage.

I 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.

The importance of logo into today’s fashion is un! be! Lievable!

If I decide to make a coat red in the show, it’s not just red, I think: is it communist red? Is it cherry cordial? Is it ruby red? Or is it apple red? Or the big red balloon red?

Probably 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.

I 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.

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

Everything has changed, and nothing has changed more than the world of fashion.

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

I 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.

It’s only I have seen enough of it and the funny thing is now, I know that I’m skinny, because I know there are even smaller clothes in the store. I think I’m big, when I was big, I never thought about it.

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.

My success comes in making fun of whatever you’re doing. That’s my way.

I enjoy wearing pins, and nobody tells me to do it.

Modest doubt is called the beacon of the wise.

I just use fashion as an excuse to talk about politics. Because I’m a fashion designer, it gives me a voice, which is really good.

I try not to go around looking like a hag.

In a meat-eating world, wearing leather for shoes and clothes and even handbags, the discussion of fur is childish.

Beauty without expression is boring.

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.

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