Quotes about image, colour, style and fashion "Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion
is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way
we live, what is happening." "Know, first, who you are, and then adorn yourself accordingly."
"We only move style forward when we embrace the past,
cherish the present and look toward the future." "Fashion is made to become unfashionable." "Schools are repainting their classrooms using colour codes
to influence the way pupils behave. Research shows that shades of blue
calm children and help them sit quietly during lessons. It also improves
performance in English and Maths. Warmer colours, however, encourage
extrovert behaviour; ideal for subjects such as drama and sport." "“I like my clothes tight enough to show I’m a woman, but loose enough to show I’m a lady.” Mae West "We read off the many signals that our companions' clothes transmit to us in every social encounter. In this way, clothing is as much a part of human body language as gestures, facial expressions and postures. Even those people who insist that they despise attention to clothing,
and dress as casually as possible, are making quite specific comments
on their social roles and their attitudes towards the culture in which
they live." "There is no model, there is only colour." "It's a fact of life that how you dress affects how you are
perceived and whether your contribution to a meeting is registered
as worth listening to. It was most alarming the way people's attitudes
changed when I started wearing my designer suits to committee meetings.
Obviously, it's not just the clothes that count; you have got to have
something worth saying. But it si true that some people's views are
dismissed before they speak because others perceive them as just a
secretary!" "It's important to look neat and tidy and not be too flashily
dressed. If you look untidy, you're considered to have an untidy mind
- it's as simple as that!" "What you have in your closet reveals what kind of job you have,
what magazines you read, how creative you are, even where you went
to college." "Good clothes open all doors." "Not caring how you look is but a brief step away from not caring
what you do or how you treat people. And surely, if you treat yourself
with contempt, you're going to have little thought, care or compassion
for anyone else." "Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to
alter it every six months." "Apparel oft proclaims the man." “It is fancy rather than taste which produces so many new
fashions” "We don't live in a world of reality, we live in a world
of perceptions. No woman can be well dressed unless she is comfortable
in what she is wearing." "Dress gives one the outward sign from which people in general
can, and often do, judge upon the inward state of mind and feelings." "It's always better to be looked over than over-looked." "You can have whatever you want if you dress for it." “Fashions fade, style is eternal.” “Fashion is architecture: it is a matter of proportions.” “The difference between style and fashion is quality.” “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.” “Every generation laughs at the old fashions, but follows
religiously the new.” “Fashion is what you adopt when you don't know who you are.” “Fashion condemns us to many follies; the greatest is to make
ourselves its slave.” "Fashion is a tool... to compete in life outside the home.
People like you better, without knowing why, because people always
react well to a person they like the look of." “The leading cause of death among fashion models is falling
through street grates.” “I dress for the image. Not for myself, not for the public,
not for fashion, not for men.” “What a deformed thief this fashion is.” "I almost resent the whole fashion thing. Good God- never wearing
the same thing twice and all of those things. It's a pain in the ass." "A fashion is nothing but an induced epidemic." “It is the unseen, unforgettable, ultimate accessory of fashion
that heralds your arrival and prolongs your departure.” "I base most of my fashion taste on what doesn't itch." "Never in the history of fashion has so little material been
raised so high to reveal so much that needs to be covered so badly." "For me, clothes are kind of character; I don't follow fashion
or understand trends." "Fashion exists for women with no taste, etiquette for people
with no breeding." "I cannot and will not cut my conscience to fit this year's
fashion. "It pains me physically to see a woman victimized, rendered
pathetic, by fashion." “Fashion is born by small facts, trends, or even politics,
never by trying to make little pleats and furbelows, by trinkets, by
clothes easy to copy, or by the shortening or lengthening of a skirt.” "I refuse to think of them as chin hairs. I think of
them as stray eyebrows." "Fashion, as we knew it, is over; people wear now exactly
what they feel like wearing." “So soon as a fashion is universal, it is out of date.” "I love fashion, but I'm not obsessed with it." "Fashion is all about happiness. It's fun. It's important.
But it's not medicine." "That is the key of this collection, being yourself. Don't
be into trends. Don't make fashion own you, but you decide what you
are, what you want to express by the way you dress and the way to live." "In business you are dressing to have an impact on your bosses
and teammates. If your clothes don't convey the message that you are
competent, able, ambitious, self-confident, reliable and authoritative,
nothing you say or do will overcome the negative signals emanating
from your apparel." “When you see a woman who can go nowhere
without a staff of admirers, it is not so much because they think she
is beautiful, it is because she has told them they are handsome.”
