Fashionable Quotes

July 1, 2009 by dailygnome 4 Comments

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

    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?
