Fashion is the science of appearances, and it inspires one with the desire to seem rather than to be.

Fashion can be this mysterious thing that you can't explain.

There's more to me than fashion. I just don't want to be seen as fashion.

Fashion is an industry to make money. It plays into human psychology. We want to belong, we want to be loved. I'm not trying to demonize the fashion industry - I love the fashion industry - but style is about taking the control out of the industry's hand and having you decide what works for you.

One doesn't want fashion to look ridiculous, silly, or out of step with the times - but you do want designers that make you think, that make you look at fashion differently. That's how fashion changes. If it doesn't change, it's not looking forward. And that's important to me.

Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months.

I love fashion, and I love how it makes me feel, but it doesn't rule my life.

In general, fashion is decorative, it's protective, it acknowledges that the world does involve conflict, and you might be attacked by assumptions, presumptions, and attitudes.
