I am not one to adhere to silly clothing rules. I love mixing metals, wearing a brown bag with black shoes, whatever.
Katwe is fifteen minutes from my home. It’s entirely about knowing it from the inside. For instance, the incredible vibrancy of style. Kampala is the center of used clothing in the world. Everyone dresses in secondhand clothes, but they look astonishing for it.
It’s very important to have the right clothing to exercise in. If you throw on an old T-shirt or sweats, it’s not inspiring for your workout.
I think it’s cooler when girls have favorite pieces of clothing rather than an entirely new wardrobe every few months.
When it comes to fashion, I never wear makeup and always stick to black clothing.
I don’t buy loads of clothing. But I do have a lot of vintage dresses and ’80s one-pieces, which are quite fun.
No one should be gatekeeping clothing of any kind.
If someone tied me down and made me answer the question, singer, actress, clothing designer, I most likely – it could change on any given day, but mostly likely I would lean towards singing. It’s where I feel most like myself – on stage singing.
I have always had a fleeting relationship with clothing.
There’s something about being a woman and being able to dress up in men’s clothing, so to speak.
I got two clothing lines – I got the 4hunnid clothing, and I got the Bompton clothing.
Men have to be freed from the tortures of heavy clothing that covers everything but the face and hands.
I remember attaching a wire clothing hanger to the antenna of my radio in my bedroom, so I could get the frequency and get that station and listen to the top 10 every night.
If you take the fashion out of it, clothing has a lot of information – about how we feel about ourselves, how we’d like to feel about ourselves, and what we’d like to be: If you show up to an interview in sweatpants and a T-shirt, I’m going to deal with you in a really different way.
My boyfriend dumped me because I let myself go. And not just with my clothing, in every facet of life.
For me, clothing is nothing without the story behind it. Everything I own evokes some kind of memory.
I am disturbed that the identification and clothing of our public officials is so easily reproduced.
Men are taught they are going to make a lot less in the fashion industry, so they don’t bank their entire lives on it. They’re very supportive. Women, on the other hand, are more competitive. They always assume I’m trans and say, ‘How did they make clothing in your size?’
My three wishes are just be respected out the game. I want respect from everybody. And just make a successful clothing line and company. I’m not going to put a number on it. Just to have a great career.
My parents would dress us up in traditional Vietnamese clothing to go to school for heritage day. We have a Vietnamese nanny that my parents wanted us to have so we could stay in touch and know where we came from.
I design clothing, and I’m a picker as well.
I will never understand how so many young women can go out in the freezing cold wearing so little clothing.
Body piercing and baggy clothes express identity among black youth, and not just beginning with hip-hop culture. Moreover, young black entrepreneurs like Sean ‘P. Diddy’ Combs and Russell Simmons have made millions from their clothing lines.
We have our own clothing line called Birdiebee that we just love.
I grew up with nothing, and I know that I don’t need anything to be happy. We were wearing second-hand clothing and eating leftovers, and I was so happy. Five-star hotels and private pick-ups hasn’t changed that.
I am a chameleon when it comes the way I dress. I am constantly changing it up, and I really can’t commit to one thing because dressing for the day or for an event is really a mood thing. I like variety, and I don’t mean just designers, I mean mixing the high-end garments and the cheaper clothing.
Looking back now, I realise that belonging to the family of a labourer actually helped to prepare my body for boxing. There were many times when my family didn’t have enough food or warm clothing to go around. All this made me physically, as well as emotionally, tough.
More than anything, Play Cloths has taken risks in regards to the pieces of clothing that we’re even creating. We started out as straight T-shirts. It was just T-shirts and a couple cool things. Now, it’s leisure pants, it’s all types of clothing. We’re evolving even with fashion trends on a super high level.
I’ve always been kind of deep into thrifting and secondhand clothing.
I have always appreciated vintage clothing, but after working on ‘Call the Midwife’ for six months, I love moving away from vintage in my day-to-day wear.
Puffy is like the ultimate business guy. He has so much under his belt – the whole Croc thing, the clothing line, the TV shows, the movies. That’s where I see myself eventually, building my brand to be able to do all these things and be successful at each one.
I would say colonialism is a wonderful thing. It spread civilization to Africa. Before it they had no written language, no wheel as we know it, no schools, no hospitals, not even normal clothing.
My appearances are almost theatrical performances. I bring items for the children to see, such as photographs and actual piece of meteorite, a family quilt, sometimes spectacles, sometimes clothing, so that they can understand what I write about is family stories based in fact.
I’m in the Apple store on Regent Street far too much; I’m obsessed by whatever the latest Apple gadget is. For clothes, I love to shop in Liam Gallagher’s shop Pretty Green on Carnaby Street, or Cult Clothing in Crouch End, for Original Penguin and G-Star.
There’s two facets to writing a song. There’s you sitting in your room writing the sentiments of the song; the lyrics, the melody and the changes, and then there’s the part where you go into the studio and you put clothing on it.
I think my sister and I just focus on working hard. We started off working with Wal-Mart on our first clothing line as an extension of our personal brand when we were 12, and we got to learn about being aware of what was in the market and what wasn’t.
