Ankara Maxi Gown Styles

My place in design history is to sort of interpret youth culture, and I think we’ve seen that done in fashion before – it’s not a new concept – but it hasn’t been done with the same vigour in a modern context.

Virgil Abloh

You don’t learn style from watching people on a runway. Fashion happens every morning when you wake up.

Shalom Harlow

Follow sound business trends, not fashion trends.

Janice Dickinson

The fashion I’ve acquired over the years is so sacred to me – from costumes to couture, high fashion to punk wear I’ve collected from my secret international hot spots. I keep everything in an enormous archive in Hollywood.

Lady Gaga

It’s the fashion, I tell you: big, tall women going out with tiny, tiny men.

Nicholas Haslam

My mum never put those fashion ideals into the house. I didn’t wear make-up, and I had my hair all frizzy.

Adwoa Aboah

To me, music is art and fashion is art, but fame? Fame isn’t art, but the person you become when you’re famous – your alter ego – that’s art.

Cardi B

You know, the fashion business is this legendary repository of young girls on their way to getting husbands. I really wanted to work.

Ali MacGraw

I was always interested in fashion and beauty. I was fifteen when I was scouted in a flea market. Two years later, I arrived in New York. I was in awe because it was like another planet.

Candice Swanepoel

The ’60s are my favorite decade – with the Cold War, the women’s movement. And then there’s the music, the fashion, the clothes, the hair.

Margot Robbie

You don’t have a choice about fashion or aesthetics – you’re in it, whether you like it or not.

A. A. Gill

Since I was young, the artistic expression that fashion embodies has inspired me. It’s a way to communicate oneself.

Maria Sharapova

Madonna remains the most visible performer on the planet, as well as one of the wealthiest, but would anyone seriously say that artistic self-development is her primary motivating principle? She is too busy with Kabbalah, fashion merchandising, adoption melodramas, the gym, and ill-starred horseback riding to study art.

Camille Paglia

That is something that my mother instilled in me at a very young age – to know my self-worth. And I have had times again and again in the fashion industry where all of that was tested and I rose to the occasion because I was told that I am worthy and I should be able to walk away from something that is not worthy of me.

Iman

Never in the history of fashion has so little material been raised so high to reveal so much that needs to be covered so badly.

Cecil Beaton

Fashion is always of the time in which you live. It is not something standing alone. But the grand problem, the most important problem, is to rejeuvenate women. To make women look young. Then their outlook changes. They feel more joyous.

Coco Chanel

Italians know that what matters is style, not fashion. Italian style does not have social or age boundaries.

Stefano Gabbana

I think it’s despicable to be on display and a fashion showoff.

Danielle Darrieux

People have told me about organized crime in the fashion industry, but I can’t talk about that. I’m looking to stay alive.

Calvin Klein

We’re not doing outrageous fashion; I make sports clothes that are relatively conservative, clothes that everyone wears.

Calvin Klein

I don’t know exactly what is my impact, but I can say I am doing fashion my own way.

Jean Paul Gaultier

I think people who are compelled to achieve never really think they’ve achieved… I think the moment you get to a place when you think ‘Oh I’m a fashion legend’ then that’s when you’re no longer competitive in your field.

Tom Ford

Fashion is so subjective, and I think it should be playful.

Kourtney Kardashian

‘Women’s fashion’ is a euphemism for fashion created by men for women.

Andrea Dworkin

I don’t really do glasses. It’s a good look, but I’m not big on wearing clear glasses for fashion. And I don’t wear too many shades because my fans love to see my eyes.

Trey Songz

My mother was a sociologist and an intellectual, and my father was an industrialist with a business in copper and aluminum wire. He was very strict and he wanted me to work in the family business – for him, the worst thing was having a daughter who worked in fashion.

Carmen Busquets

I don’t use a stylist. I know what I like, so I do it myself. I rip things out from fashion magazines. It’s easy to order when the phone number is right on the page.

Aerin Lauder

I don’t like fashion. I don’t like art. I do like smashing up expensive things.

Wendy O. Williams
