The skirts are lovely, ... They move very well and they're very feminine. They make women look really like women.

Fashion is not easy. You have to change your eye to look for beauty all the time.
fashion
I'm not in the fashion business; I'm in the beauty business.
fashion thinking important
Can I tell you who is the most important fashion icon in the world? Queen Elizabeth of England. Think about that. She has never put her foot anywhere wrong and always looks fantastic.

If you think that you did everything and know everything and that everything has been done perfectly well, then it's time to retire.
fashion real sense-of-humor
Queen Elizabeth of England is the real fashion icon of the century. And she has a sense of humor.
art book house
You have to find your own style, and it's difficult to define what style is. It's not what you're wearing; it's how you wear it. It's something very personal, and it reflects the way you live and your house, the books you read, the art you have.
people describe-me
I always let other people describe me because if I describe myself you will not understand.
beautiful thinking
Just wear what you think looks beautiful.
perseverance fashion heart
In fashion, you have to have perseverance. You have to do it again and again, but it's something that comes out of my heart, and I love it.
president
I find that it is much easier now for women to be in any position because, as you see, they are presidents of banks, they are prime ministers, they are doctors. Everything is about women.
I love myself so much, I simply cannot describe it.
flannel gray heaven lots love materials translated wonderful
Lots of suits, lots of trousers, which I'm in heaven (about) because I love them. (They're) all made in men's materials like glen plaids and gray flannel and all in houndstooth. All those men's materials translated for a very feminine, wonderful woman.
worry fit fashionable
Even if it doesn't fit the woman, like, let's say a very short skirt, and the woman doesn't have the legs or the height to wear the skirt, but she has to wear it because it's fashionable. Don't do it! If it doesn't look good on you, don't worry about it.
