The cardinal sin is not being badly dressed, but wearing the right thing in the wrong place.

The subjective actress thinks of clothes only as they apply to her; the objective actress thinks of them only as they affect others, as a tool for the job.

The cardinal sin is not being badly dressed, but wearing the right thing in the wrong place.

Clothes are the way you present yourself to the world; they affect the way the world feels and thinks about you; subconsciously they affect the way you feel and think about yourself.

With women, there's a basic female instinct of caring deeply about the way they look; women stars have a narcissist complex.

Growing old gracefully used to begin at about 35, but today women prefer to 'stay young gratefully' with thanks to designers, beauticians and plastic surgeons.

My motto is that the audience should notice the actors, not the clothes.
