A lot of men and women don't like to prioritize fashion.
— Tan France
When your clothes aren't organized, it's even harder. You don't know what your options are. Everything is in disarray. Organization makes it so much easier to put on an outfit.
Nobody needs an abundance of plaid.
I live in Salt Lake City, and I don't have a lot of gay friends.
If you can't make an effort in what you're even wearing, you're probably not going to make the effort to create a multi-million dollar company.
Being 'out and proud' can feel like a real luxury of Western culture, where people are often white and see existing white gay people in their culture. That's a kind of privilege people don't know they possess.
It's not called 'Queer Eye For the Straight Guy' now for a reason. We want to be able to help more and more people, and why wouldn't we help women, and why wouldn't we help a trans man? I want to help as many different groups as physically possible with this show.
I think that people assume when they meet me that I'm going to judge what they're wearing.
I would have to say Kelly Clarkson's 'Because of You' would be the song I would associate with coming out. It's really emotive, and personally, it reminds me of my father.
I've been to New York many times, and I've always noticed that there aren't that many French tucks around.
When it comes to a vintage store, we're not concerned with men's or women's. I want you to treat it like no other store. Just find stuff that you love and go for that.
Yes, it's called 'Queer Eye' and there are five gay men on it, but we're also tackling real issues. The conversations we have on our show would be just as valid if they swapped us out with straight guys. What we do is important, not just because we're a niche gay show.
If you're not taking care of your food, your body, you're not gonna look great.
Just because the office is casual doesn't mean you shouldn't make an effort.
You know how Oprah has her moment about bread? Mine's about boots. You could wear it to a meeting at work. You could wear it to a date.You could wear it to a wedding with a suit.
It doesn't matter if the item isn't your favorite thing as long it fits well.
I've never dreamt of being on TV; I had never tried to be in the entertainment business at all.
Gay men can sometimes feel ashamed or chastised when the messaging is 'Be out and proud!' or 'Just come out.' It's not that easy. It certainly wasn't for me.
Sexuality can be difficult to articulate, and we have to be patient and compassionate.
I grew up in a very cultural household, but part of our culture is that we don't really take photos.
I was terrified of being on camera. I was worried that whatever I would say, people would assume I'm speaking for every Muslim, every Pakistani, or every Middle Eastern person. That's a lot of pressure. But it also got me excited about what could be done, because I am a representative for people who are underrepresented.
I'm really loving Billie Eilish's 'idontwannabeyouanymore.' Her dreamy vocals offer such a lovely moment of escape, and there's a sophistication to the lyrics that are so surprising coming from a teen artist.
I lived a very, very Middle Eastern life until I was in my early 20s. It was very sheltered.
A leather jacket always makes you look cooler, sometimes more chic, and it elevates your look to make you look like you've purchased something expensive to set yourself apart.
Every man's closet should be dark pair of blue jeans, a black jean, and a mid wash jean.
I thought I wanted to be a machinist. I thought that was the most glamorous job in the world.
Every man - and every woman, too - needs a white sneaker.
As a stylist, my goal is to help people be the best version of themselves.
I am sending a memo to every man in the world: just because you make an effort with your wardrobe doesn't make you a wuss.
I have to battle so many issues, and the biggest is racism.
Until my businesses really took off, my family, I think, just assumed I was selling printed T-shirts out of the back of my car. They just couldn't wrap their head around how fashion could be profitable.
I'm never massively concerned about what somebody is wearing, as long as it makes them feel really good about themselves.
I love a boot. It's an easy transition for all surroundings - not too casual, not too formal. You look like you're off to your engagement photos, even if you're going down to a pub with your friends afterward.
We have the luxury in the West of being able to say, 'Yeah, absolutely, we're progressive, we've moved forward with the gay community.' We haven't in a lot of other countries. My people from Pakistan - I know we haven't moved forward.
I hadn't seen any people like me on TV before, and I definitely didn't want to be the first one. I didn't want that responsibility on my head.
I live in Utah.
Nobody wants to see an engagement photo with you in your ratty jeans and t-shirt. Go for layers, and you're always going to look like you made more of an effort.
