I’m doing a project where I needed to come up with quotes on fashion and style and discovered all these gems. I think the Oscar Wilde one is my fav:
We are shaped and fashioned by what we love.
– Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Fashions fade, style is eternal.
– Yves Saint Laurent
The difference between style and fashion is quality.
– Giorgio Armani
Every generation laughs at the old fashions, but follows religiously the new.
– Henry David Thoreau
Beauty of style and harmony and grace and good rhythm depend on simplicity.
– Plato
I don’t design clothes, I design dreams.
– Ralph Lauren
I’m not that interested in fashion… When someone says that lime-green is the new black for this season, you just want to tell them to get a life.
– Bruce Oldfield
Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months.
– Oscar Wilde
“I design dreams!”
I love it.
i'd like to give bruce oldfield a high-five. his quote is a bit more negative and cynical than i generally prefer, but i have to agree with him wholeheartedly on this one.
Yup, I second the Oscar Wilde one. Fashion is pointlss. Having said that, I religiously watch the Academy Awards and Golden Globes every year to see what the stars are wearing! What's the project you're working on?
MJ- It's the project we were talking about when you were over here. I'm designing the website for her business.
