There are two types of girls: those that can make cheap clothes look expensive and those that make designer clothes look cheap.
You see me, I wanted to be fashion designer. I became fashion designer. So I think that everything is possible.
I don't call myself an 'industrial designer,' because I'm other things. Industrial designers want to make novel things. Novelty is a concept of commerce, not an aesthetic concept.
I've always cared about fashion and what I look like. I don't like to spend a lot of money on designer clothes, but I do like to look good.
When I read about young designers selling 51 percent of their company to someone else, I cringe. I want to say, 'Don't do it - call me first.'
A wise friend once told me, 'Don't wear what fashion designers tell you to wear. Wear what they wear.'
For each episode the five of us are all wearing clothes by the same designer. It's a different designer for each episode, but for each one we're all wearing their clothes.
It's amazing to see things that are suggested in the book fully developed and so brilliantly realized through the artistry of the designers.
Any possible universe could be explained as the work of some sort of designer. Even a universe that is completely chaotic...could be supposed to have been designed by an idiot.
I'm an unbelievable designer.
But I'm not crazy about the designers like Prada and Gucci. I hate going into designer stores.
You can't statistically explain improbable things like living creatures by saying that they must have been designed because you're still left to explain the designer, who must be, if anything, an even more statistically improbable and elegant thing.
I didn't know I was going to become a designer; I was going to become a successful person, but I really wanted to be free.
If I am in fashion, it is really due to very few designers that I admire - not because I don't like the rest, or that the rest are not beautiful, but because I am very selective. I adore Versace. I adore Helmut Lang, despite the fact that it's over.
As great as it is, 'Vogue' won't change a designer's business. But if an unknown brand is worn by a certain person in a tabloid, it will be the biggest designer within a week.
Clothes, thank God I can get them from designers.
My job as a designer is to make a woman feel her very best.
I wanted to be a graphic designer from the time I was 15, without ever having actually met one. I lived in the mid-west, not in a media centre, and I didn't know anyone who did that for a living. It took me a while to find out what that thing I wanted to do was actually called, but once I sorted that out I got really interested in it.
I had a dual role: designer and advocate.
You can't really have like high end designers for everything.
No, I'm not a French designer either. I'm from nowhere. I'm a European, old European is all I am.
Tell me, why do former young designers who are now in their middle 40s have to redo the 1960s and 70s. Why they cannot invent fashion for today?
I trained as a designer, so I'm always terribly keen about what I'm going to look like.
All our engineers are designers and all our designers are engineers.
Users are not designers.
