Zitat des Tages von Michael Kors:
A man in a well tailored suit will always shine brighter than a guy in an off-the-rack suit.
American women often fall into the trap of, 'Oh, these are my weekend clothes. These are my work clothes. This is what I wear at night.' It's so old-fashioned.
My apartment looks like no one lives in it.
I think a lot of women have too many mini skirts in their closets.
I grew up surrounded by these tough, ballsy, strong women. They were also adoring women, but they were the kind of women who would argue over what kind of pants you were wearing or the color of your nail polish.
I can't dance and I can't sing too well.
I know what women look good in. I don't think the rules ever change.
When you try on something, you have to ask yourself, 'How many ways could I wear this? Could I wear it to work? To dinner or drinks? Will it span the seasons' If you have to think too hard about those questions, then skip it.
I am the oldest young designer in New York City.
There's a whole generation of women who never really heard the word investment before, when it came to fashion. They've been buying things because they were cheap.
In the '80s, it got to the point where we'd have shows with a hundred looks. You'd want to order a pizza before it was over!
I don't even think of going to Europe as going to another country now.
People always think that designers hate each other. And we're certainly a competitive lot, but we also enjoy each other's company.
Because of what's going on with the economy, I think women are realizing that maybe they don't need a closet full of clothes. They just need the right clothes.
I wear the same thing every day. I always pack two black jackets, loads of black T-shirts, loads of white jeans. I feel a little fresh and glamorous and graphic.
People want to look taller and thinner. No one says, 'Ooh! Let me buy that dress because it makes me feel matronly!'
I wasn't Barbie-obsessed. I think my mother might have been my Barbie.
Clothes are like a good meal, a good movie, great pieces of music.
There are two kinds of designers: ones who are very happy locked in their office surrounded by their coterie. The last thing they need to do is to go to a trunk show; they'd go running for the hills. I not only enjoy it, I think, how do you design things that are applicable to life - unless you live it?
I think the older I get, the more I realize that the ultimate luxury is time.
Americans are always a little bit insecure.
My legacy would be that you don't have to give up anything. You can be chic but have a sense of humor, you can be sexy but comfortable, you can be timeless but fresh.
When I was a kid, I was trendier. I'd wear anything. I was in love beads and platforms.
The biggest lesson that I've learned is that fashion is this tightrope where you have to be consistent but inconsistent. You need the connective thread but at the same time you need a sense of surprise.
