Exaggeration is my only reality.
— Diana Vreeland
The bikini is the most important thing since the atom bomb.
I loathe narcissism, but I approve of vanity.
Poor, darling fellow - he died of food. He was killed by the dinner table.
In a Balenciaga you were the only woman in the room - no other woman existed.
What do I think about the way most people dress? Most people are not something one thinks about.
You don't have to be born beautiful to be wildly attractive.
Red is the great clarifier - bright and revealing. I can't imagine becoming bored with red - it would be like becoming bored with the person you love.
Pink is the navy blue of India.
Balenciaga did the most delicious evening clothes. Clothes aren't delicious any more.
I always wear my sweater back-to-front; it is so much more flattering.
The only real elegance is in the mind; if you've got that, the rest really comes from it.
The body must stay fit. Fit people like themselves much better.
Parents, you know, can be terrible.
Elegance is innate. It has nothing to do with being well dressed. Elegance is refusal.
No one cuts backs like he did. No one knows what a back is anymore.
Blue jeans are the most beautiful things since the gondola.
