The fashion-wise woman doesn't run herself frantic trying to keep up with the latest rage, fad or craze.
Every best-dressed woman keeps some of her gowns for years. She's learned that fashion-wisdom is compounded of knowledge, taste, confidence and poise.
A woman who's that sold on personal comfort is bound to be sloppy, too, in her personal relationships.
Sometimes, a woman filled with all sorts of uncertainties in most of the areas of life and emotion, will have her only confidence and independence in her fashion-sense. I'm sure this is a misfortune. Fashion should not be expected to serve in the stead of courage or character.
No woman can really tell-sometimes she doesn't even realize-all the things she learns when the man of her life replaces the Prince of her dreams.
I have a full, rich respect for fashion. I love its whimsy, its humor, its charm and its rewards. I love its vagaries and its demands. I love what it does for women. But I know, with all my heart, that no woman should follow it blindly.
I feel almost sad whenever I see a woman stare blankly into space.
A charming woman is a busy woman.
When we came to do the take, I did it my way. I played it with all the emotional abandon I possessed and loved every second of my performance.
Way off in 2060, I wonder what we do today will look like in perspective, and after it's been sifted through the objectivity of time.
Listening is more than just a very rewarding habit. After awhile you discover what a world of information you can gain from hearing what others say, and If you're interested, you're interesting. All the most popular people are good listeners.
I well remember how sure I was of myself when I was in my teens. I'm not critical of teens today.
I was always independent. I never wanted to follow the crowd, but I think that following the crow is more typical of teenage behavior today than in my day. And I do deplore it.
My work has brought me into contact with the world's finest designers. I had a lot to learn. I have learned a lot. I found out you can learn a lot about yourself as a person, too-while you're learning how to use fashion in your life.
