FASHION QUOTES BY COCO CHANEL
A fashion that does not reach the streets is not a fashion.
A woman has the age she deserves.
Don't spend time beating on a wall, hoping to transform it into a door.
Dress shabbily and they remember the dress; dress impeccably and they remember the woman.
Fashion fades, only style remains the same.
Fashion has become a joke. The designers have forgotten that there are women inside the dresses. Most women dress for men and want to be admired. But they must also be able to move, to get into a car without bursting their seams! Clothes must have a natural shape.
Fashion is architecture: it is a matter of proportions.
Fashion is made to become unfashionable.
Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.
How many cares one loses when one decides not to be something but to be someone.
In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different.
I don't understand how a woman can leave the house without fixing herself up a little - if only out of politeness. And then, you never know, maybe that's the day she has a date with destiny. And it's best to be as pretty as possible for destiny.
I invented my life by taking for granted that everything I did not like would have an opposite, which I would like.
I've never done anything by halves.
Innovation! One cannot be forever innovating. I want to create classics.
Luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury.
Nature gives you the face you have at twenty; it is up to you to merit the face you have at fifty.
Since everything is in our heads, we had better not lose them.
Success is often achieved by those who don't know that failure is inevitable.
The best color in the whole world, is the one that looks good, on you!
The most courageous act is still to think for yourself. Aloud.
There is no time for cut-and-dried monotony. There is time for work. And time for love. That leaves no other time!
Those who create are rare; those who cannot are numerous. Therefore, the latter are stronger.
"Where should one use perfume?" a young woman asked. "Wherever one wants to be kissed," I said.
