Quotations
Fashion
The secret to modeling is not being perfect. What one needs is a face that people can identify in a second. You have to be given what’s needed by nature, and what’s needed is to bring something new.
-Karl Lagerfeld
It is impossible to be completely abstract about clothes because they have no life unless they are worn. They must fit onto a body or they do not exist.
-Elizabeth Hawes
"Why is a Dress?"
Fashions fade, style is eternal.
-Yves Saint Laurent

-Oscar Wilde
Being classy is my teenage rebellion.
-Rebecca McKinsey
Be not afraid of being called un-fashionable.
-Adolf Loos

-Emma Watson
The fashion wears out more apparel than the man.
-William Shakespeare
I am a fashion person, and fashion is not only about clothes -- it's about all kinds of change.
-Karl Lagerfeld
