People from all walks of life do love fashion. Men, women, adults and kids are kinda hooked into it. Even me, a grown up man and proud father of 2 is kinda addicted into it. In fact, I co-created and owned a fashion games arcade website that you can visit and play with today.
Fashion for me is not always about the clothes, shoes and accessories you wear. Fashion is about being true to yourself and doing stuff and things that makes you happy. Fashion is something that won’t fade and here’s to stay for good.
As I continuously searched for everything that is fashion related at the world wide web, fashion quotes hits me up. Below are the best fashion quotes I managed to gather together. The quotes came from people who knows fashion at their very own unique ways, from famous celebrities up to awesome designers. Without further ado, here they are.
1).
2). “When a person is in fashion, all they do is right.” Lord Chesterfield
3). “Fashions fade, style is eternal.” Yves Saint-Laurent
4). “Don’t be into trends. Don’t make fashion own you, but you decide what you are, what you want to express by the way you dress and the way you live.” Gianni Versace
5). “I don’t do fashion, I AM fashion.” Coco Chanel
6).
7). “The most important thing to remember is that you can wear all the greatest clothes and all the greatest shoes, but you’ve got to have a good spirit on the inside. That’s what’s really going to make you look like you’re ready to rock the world.” Alicia Keys
8). “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.” Coco Chanel
9). “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
10). “Fashion is so close in revealing a person’s inner feelings and everybody seems to hate to lay claim to vanity so people tend to push it away. It’s really too close to the quick of the soul.” Stella Blum
11).
12). “The only real elegance is in the mind; if you’ve got that, the rest really comes from it.” Diana Vreeland
13). “The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It’s the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows & the beauty of a woman only grows with passing years.” Audrey Hepburn
14). “I think there is beauty in everything. What ‘normal’ people would perceive as ugly, I can usually see something of beauty in it.” Alexander McQueen

16). “One is never over-dressed or underdressed with a Little Black Dress.” Karl Lagerfeld
17). “I like being a woman, even in a man’s world. After all, men can’t wear dresses, but we can wear the pants.” Whitney Houston
18).
19). “Elegance is the only beauty that never fades.” Audrey Hepburn
20). “I have always believed that fashion was not only to make women more beautiful, but also to reassure them, give them confidence.” Yves Saint Laurent
21). “Unique and different is the next generation of beautiful.” Taylor Swift
22). “Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world.” Marilyn Monroe
23). “Fashion has two purposes: comfort and love. Beauty comes when fashion succeeds.” Coco Chanel
24). “I’m thinking balls are to men, what purses are to women. It’s just a little bag but we’d feel naked in public without it.” Sarah Jessica Parker as Carrie Bradshaw (“Sex And The City”)
25). “Dress shabbily and they remember the dress; dress impeccably and they remember the woman.” Coco Chanel
26). “Elegance is not the prerogative of those who have just escaped from adolescence, but of those who have already taken possession of their future.” Coco Chanel
27).
28). “While clothes may not make the woman, they certainly have a strong effect on her self-confidence — which, I believe, does make the woman.” Mary Kay Ashe
29). “Today, fashion is really about sensuality—how a woman feels on the inside. In the ’80s women used suits with exaggerated shoulders and waists to make a strong impression. Women are now more comfortable with themselves and their bodies—they no longer feel the need to hide behind their clothes.” Donna Karan

39 Awesome And Inspiring Fashion Quotes To Live By (In Text And Images),

I like this most: “Don’t be into trends. Don’t make fashion own you, but you decide what you are, what you want to express by the way you dress and the way you live.”
To be into trends is an expensive fashion habit – as what I observe and experience for some time in the past. Gianni Versace simply want us to be who we are, a unique individual.
Thanks for your comment. Great analogy!

You are so diligent to compile them.
Thanks Mylene, took me a while, but hey, it’s worth the time.
I love the #18 quotes. Unfortunately, I am not used to wearing high heels. Lol.
Haha, thanks Mommy Maye!
Go go go for Lady Gaga’s quote on #33.
I have a fashion blog too, and I quote “The Only Rule Is Don’t Get Boring & Dress Cute Wherever You Go. Life Is Too Short To Blend In.” – the problem is I don’t know from where I took this quote (found on the footer of my blog). Paris Hilton and Coco Chanel ata. Not sure. Reminds me of searching for it so I can acknowledge them on my blog.
Great quote. Indeed life is too short to blend in! Thanks Jhari!
I just love the “elegance” quotes of Audrey, Coco, and Giorgio
I so love the #18 because I love wearing high-heeled shoes, haha!!!! Great post you have here. Different insights from different people and yet the essence is quite similar, we make our own fashion.
the quotes are inspiring. i have always been intimidated of fashion..turned out fashion is also who i am. thanks.
nice collection of quotes. I love number 7 and 11 most
Nice collection. I like #11, Its who we are!
I love the quotes, very inspiring.
I’m not fashionable though coz Im more of a geek. hehe
love the “fashion fade, style dont” and marilyn monroe’s give a girl the right shoes and she could conquer the world
Those were cool! I like the ones from Alicia Keys, Audrey Hepburn and Alexander McQueen. Although, maganda yung mga quotes lahat. hehehe
Yes to 38!
wow, you’ve done a lot of researching to bring all these quotes…
those are inspiring…nice!
Nice quotes! I like reading quotes! love ‘em all most specially number 38th.
thank you for sharing these quotes.. very inspiring..:)
I’m not really into the latest fashion trends because I don’t like spending money on it :/
But I do think I need to start investing on a few key pieces at least. My wardrobe is alarmingly very small~
“Don’t be into trends. Don’t make fashion own you, but you decide what you are, what you want to express by the way you dress and the way you live.” Gianni Versace
Idk why this made me laugh….
“And now, I’m just trying to change the world, one sequin at a time.” Lady Gaga
Love love love this list! I think I know what my fashion sense is, but Im having a hard time expressing it. There’s just not enough affordable plus sized clothes out there in the style I would really really like. Ahh.
I love all the quotes in this post! I was smiling while reading. It’s empowering.
great quotes but i like the fourth one
Great fashion quotes. I noticed that you have the most qoutes from Coco Channel so it must be true, “I don’t do fashion. I AM fashion.”
I love Audrey Hepburn’s quote the best though. I’m a happy mom so I’m one of the prettiest women. tee-hee
Wow, thumbs up for being able to compile all these!
I like the quote 5, 6 and 18.
Wow, tha’t's a lot of fashion quotes. I’m not a fashionista so I appreciate the quotes that say that what matters most is who you are and not just what you wear. Of course, one also needs to look decent enough.
I love Audrey Hepburn’s quote because real beauty radiates in being genuinely happy. She’s a beautiful woman inside out.
go coco chanel! =)
i love Marilyn Monroe’s quote!!
“Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world.” Marilyn Monroe
Nothing beats being happy (quote no. 38) – it does not require expensive clothes nor shoes to match the clothes. Just a state of being happy and the glow will be remarkable!
I don’t like Karl Lagerfiend because of his being tactless (sometimes) but I agree with what he said:
“One is never over-dressed or underdressed with a Little Black Dress.”
thats a very long list, I am sure it takes a lot of time doing this post
fashion really is not about designers clothes and high end products. its about you feeling comfortable in your own skin
i’m not really into trends and not fashionable too. but i think the most important is the confidence you have in wearing your clothes.
i like the 2nd to the last one the most. Once a person is happy, her beauty comes out naturally!
I like the number 7, thanks for sharing this fashion quote..
good list here! my favorite ” fashion is what you buy, style is what you do with it”
This is a good compilation of quotations about fashion.
i love these quotes! one of my fave is this “Fashion is so close in revealing a person’s inner feelings and everybody seems to hate to lay claim to vanity so people tend to push it away. It’s really too close to the quick of the soul”.

All from great fashion designers/icon and couturiers.
I love this one: 30). “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
This is very true. By the style and the dress you wear reflects who you really are.
I will stick with my favorite quote here, number 30. Whatever dress you wear, wear it with attitude.
These are so wapak na quotes!!! love it!
Great compilation and like style, your posts and topics never fade.
OMG. I totally love this post.. since I love reading Fashion Quotes.
a good way to start a fab day
great search I love fashions but sometimes they hate me lol
Ah, this is very inspiring. I was never that conscious with what I wear, as long as it’s appropriate forthe occasion and I am comfortable with it
I love them all that I can’t seem to choose only one as a favorite!
Fashion is never finished, isn’t it? It’s always evolving, morphing and sometimes, goes back in time.
I like #30, agree its not all about beauty but attitude as well.
Very inspiring indeed not just for all fashionistas but to every individual.
Not fashionable enough to know all these quotes but I am happy that you made a post out of it.
very well said…YOU are the very definition of how you see fashion. its an expression of who you are and how you feel about yourself and life in general.Yahweh bless
I disagree with some of the points on #1 – …fashion is not a style, and that it does not have to be worn casually, nor outside the runway. they all counter my stand on fashion
This is my fave: “Don’t be into trends. Don’t make fashion own you, but you decide what you are, what you want to express by the way you dress and the way you live.” Gianni Versace
…because fashion is not supposed to consume our identity.
I like the quote “Fashion Fades, Style is Eternal” as this gives premium to the persons style and how they carry themselves over latest trends.
That’s a lot of quotes to live by and be moved. And indeed, happy girls are the prettiest of them all.
I like how most of the fashion icons do not talk about fashion in terms of cloths or accessories but in terms of who they are inside.
I stand by Coco Chanel, I AM FASHION!
Ang taray lang.
