thinking loner
I was always sort of a loner, I suppose. I always had to think out everything for myself... I suppose that is what you call a loner.
passion fire burning
If it isn't a passion, it isn't burning, it isn't on fire, you haven't lived.
ideas
I've always remained totally myself, which is to say, without an idea... of what to do.
cows
To be contented—that’s for the cows.
oil style diamond
God was fair to the Japanese. He gave them no oil, no diamonds. He gave them style.
clothes evening delicious
Balenciaga did the most delicious evening clothes. Clothes aren't delicious any more.
witty laughing long
A funny person is funny only for so long, but a wit can sit down and go on being spellbinding forever. One is not meant to laugh. One stays quiet and marvels. Spontaneously witty talk is without question the most fascinating entertainment there is.
mean people dresses
Vogue always did stand for people's lives. I mean, a new dress doesn't get you anywhere; it's the life you're living in the dress, and the sort of life you had lived before, and what you will do in it later.
people body fit
The body must stay fit. Fit people like themselves much better.

You can see and feel everything in clothes.

I was always fascinated by the absurdities and luxuries and the snobbism of the world that fashion magazines showed. Of course, it’s not for everyone...But I lived in that world, not only during my years in the magazines business but for years before, because I was always of that world-- at least in my imagination.
