You Gotta Have Style...

Maria Corte Maidagan

"Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening."

-Coco Chanel

Tim Bower

"You don't learn style from watching people on a runway. Fashion happens every morning when you wake up."

-Shalom Harlow

Niklas Asker

"I will just keep on doing what I do, living my life and being myself. If people will join me in doing that, this world will be fabulous!"

-Conchita Wurst

Tran Nguyen

"Fashion is about dreaming and making other people dream."

-Donatella Versace

John Mattos

"In difficult times fashion is always outrageous."

-Elsa Schiaparelli

David Johnson

"Fashion must be the most intoxicating release from the banality of the world."

-Diana Vreeland

Oscar Ramos

"You can never take too much care over the choice of your shoes. Too many women think that they are unimpotant, but the real proof of an elegant woman is what is on her feet."

-Christian Dior

Guy Stauber

"If you look back in history of the women who are most memorable and most stylish, they were never the followers of fashion. They were the ones who were unique in their style, breakers of the rules. They were authentic, genuine, original. They were not following the trends."

- Nina Garcia

Ricardo Martinez

"Fashion is a weapon that you can use when you need it."

-Donatella Versace

Mark Elliot

"Fashion is what you adopt when you don't know who you are."

-Quentin Crisp

Dongyun Lee

"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."

-Stacy London

Gary Kelley

"Fashion is to please your eye. Shapes and proportions are for your intellect."

-Carolina Herrera

Chris Gall

"The best fashion show is definitely the street. Alsways has been, always will be."

- Bill Cunningham

James Bennett

"I don't want to be just an average guy. I want to do whatever possible to win a lot of games. I'm a competitor."

-Felix Hernandez

Goni Montes

"Conformist is a potent statement, and as much as we do talk about individuality in fashion, there's a sense that people are fearful of not confirming and not being a part of action."

-Eric O'Connor

CF Payne

"Fashion is about dressing according to what's fashionable. Style is more about being yourself."

-Oscar de la Renta

Jason Seiler

"The concept of commercialism in the fashion ad art world is looked down upon. You know, just to think, ' What amount of creativity does it take to make something that masses of people like? And, ' How does creativity apply across the board?'"

-Kanye West

Michal Lisowski

"I've always said fashion is like roast chicken: You don't have to think about it to know it's delicious."

-Alber Elbaz

Kent Barton

"Always hold on to the truth. Don't let others sway your heart. Don't compromise yourself for the sake of temporal groovyness. Be separate from the crowd that's awash with normality by standing on a firm foundation. Never waver your love or faith, and in all you do, please wear my shoes."

-John Fluevog

Orlando Arocena

"I still appreciate individuality. Style is much more interesteing than fashion, really."

-Marc Jacobs

Sam Spratt

"Fashion is almost like a religion, for me at least."

-ASAP Rocky

Bill Sanderson

"I wish I had invented blue jeans. They have expression, modesty, sex appeal, simplicity - all I hope for in my clothes."

-Yves Saint Laurent

Paul Cox

"The dress must follow the body of a woman, not the body following the shape of the dress."

-Hubert de Givenchy

Gregory Manchess

"Fashion should be a form of escapism, and not a form of imprisonment."

-Alexander McQueen

Mark Summers

"That is the key of this collection, being yourself. Don't be into trends. Don't make fashion own you, but you decide what you are, what you want to express by the way you dress and the way you live."

-Gianni Versace
