Like poetry, fashion does not state anything. It merely suggests.
-Karl Lagerfeld
Quotations
Fashion
The secret to modeling is not being perfect. What one needs is a face that people can identify in a second. You have to be given what’s needed by nature, and what’s needed is to bring something new.
-Karl Lagerfeld
I don't believe in fashion. I believe in costume. Life is too short to be same person every day.
-Stephanie Perkins
"Lola and the Boy Next Door"
Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months.
-Oscar Wilde
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.
-Elizabeth Hawes
"Why is a Dress?"
Create your own style… let it be unique for yourself and yet identifiable for others.
-Anna Wintour
Over the years I have learned that what is important in a dress is the woman who is wearing it.
-Margaret Oliphant
The fashion wears out more apparel than the man.
-William Shakespeare
Art produces ugly things which frequently become more beautiful with time. Fashion, on the other hand, produces beautiful things which always become ugly with time.
-Jean Cocteau
I am a fashion person, and fashion is not only about clothes -- it's about all kinds of change.
-Karl Lagerfeld
