When somebody wants to work and believes in something, it doesn't matter if you're well known or rich or whatever it is.

Men tell me that I've saved their marriages. It costs them a fortune in shoes, but it's cheaper than a divorce. So I'm still useful, you see.

It was a different social structure. I'd go to [David] Bailey's for dinner at 10:30. There were always girls there and a house full of . . . I don't know, anybody. Cecil Beaton, Diana Cooper . . . And there I am sitting down with these creatures of the 20th century, and it was normal to us.

I've never been tempted to do these hideous furniture shoes.

Women are wearing tight and sexy clothes again. It is the body-conscious mentality, and women are revealing every bulge.

Remain dignified, dress well, be good to other people and you’ll be fine.

I don't know why my shoes are so popular - I am always surprised and mystified by it.
