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.

All one really requires for putting anything over is enough energy and resistance to keep on plugging the idea. Someone will eventually fall.

Chic is a combination of style and fashion.

One of the most fascinating things about the world of fashion is that practically no one knows who inhabits it or why it exists. There are a few people who know how it works, but they won't tell.

All changes in clothes rise out of the lives of the people who wear them. The function of the designer is simply to see a little ahead of time what the people want, and to provide it. No designer can start anything really new and different unless there is a public all ready for it.

I don't know when the word fashion came into being, but it was an evil day. For thousands of years people got along with something called style and maybe, in another thousand, we'll go back to it.
