Which fashion quotes are the best? Or which ones should you really take notice of? These are the questions we personal stylists often ask ourselves at NHJ Style Consultancy over a latte or a cup of green tea. Actually we made that bit up about the green tea, we prefer proper cups of tea!
Sometimes before a shopping session or when pondering what to wear from your wardrobe, a famous fashion designer quote is just the thing to make you think about what to buy or how to breathe new life into old clothes.
Here is our top list of fashion designer quotes (which are less green tea and more good old fashion brew) to assist you in your sartorial selections.
“I don't understand how a woman can leave the house without fixing herself up a little - if only out of politeness. And then, you never know, maybe that's the day she has a date with destiny. And it's best to be as pretty as possible for destiny.”
“The best colour in the whole world is the one that looks good on you.”
“You can be gorgeous at thirty, charming at forty, and irresistible for the rest of your life.”
“Dress shabbily and they remember the dress; dress impeccably and they remember the woman.”
“Over the years I have learned that what is important in a dress is the woman who is wearing it.”
“I have always believed that fashion was not only to make women more beautiful, but also to reassure them, give them confidence.”
“Simplicity, good taste and grooming are the three fundamentals of good dressing and these do not cost money.”
“Elegance is not dependent on money. The most important of all is care. Care in choosing your clothes. Care in wearing them. Care in keeping them.”
“You can never take too much care over the choice of your shoes. Too many women think that they are unimportant, but the real proof of an elegant woman is what is on her feet.”
“It's horrible when people are only interested in buying labels, because it doesn't bring them the happiness they think it will.”
“I hate the idea that you shouldn't wear something just because you're a certain age.”
“What you wear is how you present yourself to the world especially today, when human contacts are so quick. Fashion is instant language.”
“One is never over - or underdressed with a little black dress.”
“Never use the word “cheap”. Today everybody can look chic in inexpensive clothes (the rich buy them too). There is good clothing design on every level today. You can be the chicest thing in the world in a T-shirt and jeans — it’s up to you.”
"It’s a new era in fashion - there are no rules. It’s all about the individual and personal style, wearing high-end, low-end, classic labels, and up-and-coming designers all together."
Which seems the perfect quote to end upon!
