To me, fashion is an
outlet. I love to look at beautiful things. I love how clothes allow us to be
creative. Buying clothes is like buying pieces of art. Clothes speak to me;
even if they are mass-produced. I take care buying them, looking after them,
and displaying them. I prefer to buy clothes made in South or southern Africa.
What we wear should never be criticised. In a world in which one is compelled
to conform in so many ways, what we wear should remain a luxury that allows us
to be ourselves.
I love collecting
clothes and building outfits.
"It’s
a new era in fashion - there are no rules. It’s all about the individual and
personal style, wearing high-end, low-end, classic labels, and up-and-coming
designers all together."
—
Alexander McQueen
It’s about taking
trends and making them your own.
“I wear cheap clothes,
but I know I look good in them” – a girl in Jet (South African clothing store).
“Fashion is the most
powerful art there is. It's movement, design and architecture all in one. It
shows the world who we are and who we'd like to be.” – Blair Waldorf, Gossip Girl.
One final fashion quote
for tonight is, "Be sure what you want and be sure
about yourself. Fashion is not just beauty, it’s about good attitude. You have
to believe in yourself and be strong." — Adriana Lima.
