I absolutely adore cows. They're the most fascinating, gentle and beautiful animals. Their eyes are so amazing. I have ten that live on the land around my house. I love to talk to them. There are few things better than falling asleep in a field and being woken up by an inquisitive cow.
Risk it; go for it. Life always gives you another chance, another go at it. It's very important to take enormous risks.
The fashionable woman wears clothes. The clothes don't wear her.
I liked my skirts short because I wanted to run and catch the bus to get to work.
A woman is as young as her knees.
Fashion is a tool... to compete in life outside the home. People like you better, without knowing why, because people always react well to a person they like the looks of.
Jean Shrimpton was the most beautiful of all the models I have known. To walk down the King's Road, Chelsea, with Shrimpton was like walking through the rye. Strong men just keeled over right and left as she strode up the street.
I saw no reason why childhood shouldn't last forever. So I created clothes that worked and moved and allowed people to run, to jump, to leap, to retain their precious freedom.
Fashion is not frivolous. It is a part of being alive today.
I always designed clothes from a very young age because I didn't like the way they were. They were paralyzing; they were stilted.
I have been on a diet since 1962.
Good taste is death; vulgarity is life.
I think to myself, 'You lucky woman - how did you have all this fun?'
London style is individual.
I didn't get fat even when I was pregnant. You have to work very hard at staying slim, and it's a bore. But it's worth it.
In America, they never make anything without first having a market survey to ask the public what they want. People only ask for things they already know about, so you don't get anything new that way. That's why American fashion is stuck.
I'm greedy, but I've always watched what I eat because I want to look good. I gave up butter, cream and sugar years ago.
My favourite Nice restaurant is in the market. It's open mainly for the market people, and shuts in August.
The real creators of miniskirt are the girls, the same that you seen in the streets.
Only ugliness is obscene.
