Every day I’d say I look different. Sometimes I look really formal, sometimes I love the classic Stella McCartney, Chloe Sevigny and Gwyneth Paltrow thing. Other days I like being rock star and wearing leather jackets and studs. I love wearing Burberry – it’s the perfect combination of formal and punky.
I go to Shenzhen, China, and am taken to a vast luxury spa with a hundred leather recliners and a hundred accompanying plasma screen televisions bolted to the ceiling.
I like to dress in edgy black leather and denim, but I like a wide range of things.
I have long been of the mindset that aviators are like leather jackets – when they’re perfect, they give you ‘instant cool.’ They’re the Alexa Chung of sunglasses.
It was Julie Burchill who decreed that, beyond a certain age, a man should not be seen in a leather jacket.
I like a bohemian floral dress, but then I’ll throw on a leather jacket or a pair of lace-up boots to give it an edge. My mom is always trying to get me to wear really sweet clothes. Something pink. But that’s not really my look.
It’s hard to encapsulate my inspiration because there are so many different looks, but I think it’s just like, sexy girl you see walking down the street in a cool outfit. A lot of eyelet, a lot of leather, playing with the hard and the soft, the good and bad inside of us all.
If I’m shopping at the Gap or Old Navy, I’m saying that I’m an ordinary person: I don’t want to be seen; I don’t want to stand out. That’s a statement. If I’m wearing a leather jacket, there’s something about me that’s kind of a rebel. So everybody says something, whether they want to or not.
I throw a leather biker jacket over everything. It adds an instant downtown cool vibe and stops a look becoming too girlie. Bonus points if you wear it like a cape!
I tend to wear leather pants with crew neck sweaters or leather jackets with denim.
I’m a big fan of the Adidas three-stripe old-school zip-up tracksuit tops. I’ve got several for everyday wear, including an olive-green one, a burgundy one and a cream one with leather arms.
I don’t buy any leather goods or anything made from animal products – no down, nothing. It’s something people should be mindful of.
I love seeing people’s reactions to gifts that I’ve created from my line, such as my gold horn ring, bottle openers, my ‘Fallen’ leather jacket and my Slither black and white sweater.
I’m heavily influenced by the Nineties – I love juxtaposing a slip dress with trainers and a vintage leather jacket.
We are killing a living thing just so that we can wear it? I think fake leather is also beautiful and lasts longer. All I am saying is that if you like wearing leather stuff, put in some extra effort and explore the market. Take on fake leather and stop being part of this cruelty.
Style is not a reward for the skinny. It’s not, ‘iI I’m rich, thin and young.’ You may not like your size, but then don’t invest in leather leggings. Let yourself want the expensive bag and really love it and show it off and have a ball with it.
This camera works like photosynthesis. It is as if you were Xeroxing your own face. The pictures have such physicality: their surface is like fine leather, stained from chemicals. Each one has a body and is more than an image.
I go back to the rock n’ roll black leather jacket, red lips, smoky eyes. I like my high heels, maybe some leather pants or ripped jeans, things that have never really gone out of style. Again, it’s very reflective of who I am as a bandmate in our band.
I didn’t wear a leather jacket, man. I didn’t grow up in the ’50s.
I’m not body-conscious, but show me a woman who genuinely wants to show the tops of her thighs squashed on a leather bar stool.
The hardest part about being vegan is shoes. I mean, really, that’s the only difficult part, finding shoes that don’t have leather on them.
I was a little biker girl. I thought it was cool; everyone else thought it was really weird. The other little girls were all in these pretty dresses, and my mum bought me this black, studded leather jacket, which I loved.
In Hollywood we acquire the finest novels in order to smell the leather bindings.
I was the girl in the black leather jacket with the black fingernails, picked up after school by guys with loud cars and motorcycles. I carried straight-A grades, but I had a little trouble with rules. I tended to have a bit of an authority problem.
Every movie that I’m in is very different in terms of aesthetic and costume. I mean, from ‘Mirror, Mirror’ to ‘Mortal Instruments,’ I went from dressy dresses to leather and heels and tight, sexy, chic outfits.
Consuming less is the fastest way to eco-fashion redemption – particularly if your preference is for leather, not hemp.
I’m obsessed with leather jackets!
I’m the biggest Drake fan – my favorite is ‘Tuscan Leather’ because it’s like three songs in one, and for somebody that’s obsessed with keys, the outro has the best keys ever.
We should eat less meat – all of us – and we should use less leather. I mean, that’s reality.
My friend made me a leather dress for the MTV awards. It gives you confidence, wearing something you love.
Even our early audiences were very polite. It felt like playing in our living room. I remember the audiences changing in front of me. I remember that distinctly. The way they wore their clothes became different. We got a lot of leather jackets with studs. People’s hair changed. The whole look was just a sublime move.
When I first became involved with PETA, it was on an ‘issue-by-issue’ basis – they interviewed me in my old apartment about animal abuse in the circus as I sat on a leather sofa.
I like to wear boots with skirts or mini-dresses, or jeans with sneakers and jumpers, leather jackets, or a rain coat.
I’d like to form a club just for fathers. Specifically, fathers of daughters. There would be lots of overstuffed leather chairs, wood paneling, dim lights. The works.
