“It's been fun for me to figure out what I am in the world of fashion. I pull more now from my hometown, the aesthetic of the mountains and Arizona and the old western, vintage kind of vibe mixed with a sort of California bohemia.” WorldKindFunFashionMountainWesternAestheticHometown Author:Zella Day
“Retailing has become fiercely competitive. Today there are many large global fashion companies who have opened up mono-brand stores in major cities around the world. When I first opened my boutique in New York, in 1985, there were almost no other European luxury brands present with their own stores. Now Fifth Avenue is packed with huge stores from major Italian and French labels.” WorldTodayFashionItalian Author:Giorgio Armani
“It's really sad to me that we even have to talk about diversity in the fashion world today. That I would love to change. Diversity should be normal.” WorldTodayFashionDiversityReally Sad Author:Olivier Rousteing
“Fashion for me is the perfect combination of all the things I love. There's an element of history to it. I love understanding why people wear what they wear, why during certain periods in history women looked the way they looked. There was always a strong reason behind it, whether it was because of what was available to them or because of what was happening in the world politically or sociologically. Fashion is like an amazing blend of commerce, travel, and creativity - of studying what people were about during a particular time.” PeopleWorldReasonStrongUnderstandingPerfectCreativityStudyFashion Author:Reed Krakoff
“Fashion, at modern time, was actually a way for women to go out in the world. There was one painting of a woman sitting at a café, drinking a beer by herself and kind of pretending to read but really watching people, that sort of thing. It fascinated me.” PeopleWorldKindModernFashionPaintingDrinkingBeerPretending Author:Kim Gordon
