“I don't understand the fashion industry and the appeal of it. I understand that there are some people who think it's important to them, and they're designers, they're artists, but there seems to be a disproportionate amount of our culture that's caught up in that and the red carpet stuff. It seems like there's a disproportionate amount of attention placed on that.” PeopleThinkingImportantSeemsArtistCultureStuffAttentionFashionIndustryAmountRedCaughtAppealsDesignerCaught UpCarpetRed CarpetFashion Industry Author:Jim Gaffigan
“There are so many empty headed people in the fashion business who take themselves way too seriously and I don't think I am at all like one of them.

“I care so much about fashion that I don't care. I'm like anybody else - if I have an important place to go and I want to look good, I try on a thousand outfits and they all end up on my floor and I come out wearing jeans and Adidas.” TryingImportantCareFashionI Care Author:Zoey Deutch
“Granted, it's a long time ago, it's in the 1940s, and, granted, it's warfare that we hopefully will not conduct in a similar fashion ever again, but it is crucially important. And that act, the storming of the Normandy beaches, coupled with the Battle of the Bulge, ending the spread of Nazism throughout Europe, saved the world and it saved the world for freedom. And it was the United States that did it. And it was a bunch of 19- and 20- and 21-year-old people who did it.” PeopleWorldLongImportantFashionBattleSpreadGrantedHopefullyBeachOld People Author:Rush Limbaugh
“There are many more important things in life than fashion. But fashion, to me, is part of pop culture. And I'm an art collector. I'm obsessed with art and pop culture. And I say that there is fame, fashion, art, music and entertainment, including celebrity, that really moves the needle in society.” ArtImportantMovingCultureFashionFameObsessedPop Culture Author:Tommy Hilfiger
“Whatever you have in your show should be special, but not over the top to the point that it takes the focus away from the collection. After all, the clothes are the most important. But I don't see why I shouldn't do something that makes people smile: they are three weeks into fashion weeks, they are running all over the place, so there's no harm to coming to a show and being entertained. Of course, it has to work with the concept of the collection, it can be tricky but I know where to stop.” PeopleImportantRunningFocusWeekSpecialFashionTricky Author:Manish Arora
“But overall when you work in fashion, you're always in a rush. You're always a little late, always in a hurry. Every single moment's important, so you never have enough time to do what you want to do. It's ridiculous.” ImportantEnoughFashionRidiculousSingle Mom Author:Ines de La Fressange
“I don't know about being an icon yet but I definitely do love fashion; it's really important for me to resemble my music. I definitely look like I sound. Creating an image is an art form in itself, it's a really fun part of being a musician.” ArtImportantFunFashionMusician Author:Zella Day
“Clean lines have always been important to me, both in terms of interiors as well as fashion. For interiors, I am more interested in textures and surface treatments than bold color or print - the vein on a wood or the shine on a lacquer, for example. I know immediately when something isn't working - usually it's a question of consistency - and I make instantaneous decisions on how to remedy the situation.” ImportantTermDecisionSituationFashionShiningPrintConsistency Author:Giorgio Armani
“No matter what level you're starting at, it's about not only utilizing your time, but your resources and network. For me, I started my company with a small amount of savings; I never had investors and I was lucky in the sense that I had models and connections in the fashion industry who were willing to give me advice early on. So really, for anyone starting a new business, it's really important to seek out mentors and knowledge from those who have come before you. And to not let that be discouraging, but to take that advice and really learn from it and mold it to what you're trying to do.” GivingTryingImportantAdviceFashionLuckyInvestorsMentorDiscouragingFashion IndustryNew Business Author:Lauren Bush
