If you arenโt hearing your inner voice, it could mean youโre overburdened or not stimulated enough, or that youโve learned to shut it off because the people around you have refused to engage it. Perhaps youโve had a hardening of the arteries around your soul. I believe the choices we make in our lives and the people and places surrounding us increase the volume of our inner voice, decrease it, or annihilate it entirely.
Kelly CutroneI don't believe consumers want to see fuller-figured girls in ads. Because if they did they would refuse to buy the things they are seeing, and want to buy a different product. If people really want to see a change, they have to speak up on a daily basis to see that change. And I think that models who are suffering from an eating disorder, it is as sad to look at them as the person who is suffering from obesity or who is smoking outside their office or person who is drinking too much at the bar - everybody is suffering from something pretty much.
Kelly CutroneI work in fashion because the world is such a heavy place that I need to be in this industry that fights for five hours to get a dress.
Kelly CutroneWhen you become rich and famous and you get a lot of attention, very few people get to go through that cycle without having a hard time. Everybody in their lives has a hard period. I don't know anybody who's ever been alive who hasn't had like, heartbreak, despair, depression, death, drug or alcohol, or weight problems, or health problems.
Kelly CutroneThe whole thing about magazines is that, magazines are going to become deeper and more tutorial, and the nature of the magazine is going to change.
Kelly CutroneA lot of people have the misconception that modeling is a glamourous job, and it can be. But ultimately if you donโt like to stay quiet, and let people tell you what to do, and fuss on youโฆ it may not be the right fit. If you decide itโs something youโre really passionate about though, go for it!
