You have to look good.
I remember Glenn Miller coming to me once, before he had his own band, saying, How do you do it? How do you get started? It’s so difficult. I told him, I don’t know but whatever you do don’t stop. Just keep on going.
Too many young musicians today want to win polls before they learn their instruments.
Sometimes when you start losing detail, whether it’s in music or in life, something as small as failing to be polite, you start to lose substance.
If a guy’s got it, let him give it. I’m selling music, not prejudice.
To this day, I don’t like people walking on stage not looking good. You have to look good. If you feel special about yourself then you’re going to play special.
After you’ve done all the work and prepared as much as you can, what the hell, you might as well go out and have a good time.
I like a colorful sock. I’m a sock man.
I’m not ashamed to dress like a woman’ because I don’t think it’s shameful to be a woman.
To me, it’s very important to follow that tradition and try to find those champions, role models for the next generation.
I’ll put on a punk rock T-shirt, a ’50s style skirt, and a pair of flip-flops. I like to mesh a whole bunch of things together.
I buy my clothes at J.Crew online. I’m a very casual guy.
I like to be stylish and edgy, but also low maintenance.
A lot of musicians put diamonds on things to show they had money. I on the other had felt that a Rolex Daytona showed I had style and I didn’t need to be flashy.
Fashions, after all, are only induced epidemics.
It’s an addiction. I love clothes. I like to go down Melrose and look in all the windows and I go to different flea markets. I have lots of costumes. You never know when you’re going to have to dress up like a milkmaid from the 1600s.
For me, skinny is just a style of jeans – not a goal.
Fashion is only the attempt to realize art in living forms and social intercourse.
A fashion is nothing but an induced epidemic.
I think the Kardashian look is exotic. Curvy. Definitely sexual. And um, playful.
The idea was to expand the concept of family, as it’s part of our history, and we wanted other families of women. In the case of the Kardashians, they are all three of them very strong women, with strong personalities. It’s an iconic family
This Calvin Klein campaign is really a dream come true!!!! I mean…. Fendi and Calvin in the same year! I never would have dreamed of this life!
