Somebody’s trying to sell you a Mercedes and he pulls up in a Civic with mustard stains on his shirt, dipping a pretzel in some cheese? Nobody wants to hear what you say unless you look like somebody.
When it’s the funeral scene of ‘My Girl,’ and Thomas is in the casket, and the young lady is screaming that he can’t see without his glasses, you can absolutely, absolutely cry. Perfectly big, crazy tears all over your shirt, into the arms of others.
I am coming here to learn and contribute with my style of football. The most important thing for me in my time here is to win titles. My dream in this shirt is to make the fans happy, win trophies for them, and enjoy playing in the Barca colours.
I would have liked to invent the plain white shirt, with a skirt and pants to go with it.
The attitude is different in the U.S. I feel like, in Canada, there is more of a sense of community and more of a sense of, ‘I’ll take the shirt off my back to help you because you’re my neighbour.’ There is not many of us, right? So each and every Canadian is very special.
I love a really beautiful white shirt. I’ll always go back to it if I’m stuck on what to wear. I’ve got so many of them.
I’m a Napoli player and I’ll give 100 percent to win something with this shirt.
You can look in the mirror and try to hide it and cover it up, and it may work here or there, but there ain’t no shirt or hat you can put on or haircut you can get to hide the fact that you’re morbidly obese.
Why isn’t there any 50-year-old MCs killing it? I’m 46. Am I the only one? I can’t wait to get to 50. I’m going to let everybody know it! I’m going to wear a shirt that says ‘I’m 50.’
Did you know babies are nauseated by the smell of a clean shirt?
I use a few phrases to let people know a little bit about who I am. One of them is I belong to Jesus, which is a phrase I always wear on a shirt during the most important moments of my professional career.
My style changes constantly, but I always love a baggy, ripped-up vintage jean with combat boots and a button-up shirt.
I got my first tattoo when I was 19. The one on my shoulder is an eagle. I’d go to the beach, and I’d take off my shirt, and I’d almost feel self-conscious because nobody out there had tattoos except my buddies, the guys who rode motorcycles. American-made bikes, mainly.
Well, you know, with every character, if you’re going to expose yourself, you’ve got to figure out every detail that you’re going to play. So there’s no character that you can just go put on his shirt and be fully prepared.
I think to take your shirt off, you need to have a great body and more than that, confidence and attitude. It’s all related. A great body equals confidence, and confidence equals attitude. And when you put all three together, you get a Salman Khan! And that’s not me.
I grew up in the 90s in the time of grunge when if you didn’t go on stage in jeans and a T shirt you weren’t ‘real.’ That seemed ridiculous to me.
When Ralph Lauren creates a collection of clothes, he’s not really worried about a single tie or a single shirt or a single belt… he’s creating a movie, and the characters that he casts in his advertisements or the people that work in the stores are the actors in his life.
A trip to Tel Aviv is a ritual. I always wear the same clothes to Tel Aviv: black pants and a blue-checked shirt that I bought especially from Ralph Lauren.
No England international is a practice match. Every time you wear this shirt, it is of importance for you, the country, and the supporters.
Love songs are all about how I’ll move a mountain for you and I’ll never hurt your feelings. I’ve never been given a mountain, and if you love me, you should hurt my feelings sometimes. If I walk outside looking ugly in that shirt, you don’t love me if you don’t hurt my feelings a little bit and tell me.
I’ve never got on with the British press because they’ve always given me such a hard time. Once they build a band up they just want to do people down. They shouldn’t concentrate on the colour of someone’s shirt they should listen to the music.
I don’t do many social events in the fashion industry. Instead, I go to things like the MTV awards because that’s where I fit in – wearing a yellow tuxedo and no shirt on a red carpet.
Whether I’m running on the beach without my shirt or whether I’m going out with my kids or going to church or going out to dinner – I don’t choose to insulate myself in engaging in real life. Hence, the public kind of almost knows me as much through my real life that they see through the rag mags.
Somebody will come on TV singing, and you’re like, ‘Oh my God! I mean, they suck! You know, who signed them?’ Well, it’s just because she’s good lookin’, or it’s because he’s takin’ his shirt off and he’s muscley or something, or else he wouldn’t have gotten his chance.
I met this homeless man who had never owned a shirt in his life. He had taken his pants and worn them as a shirt and I thought it was so creative. He was liberated from the conventions of fashion.
My pride at wearing the Irish shirt was always 100 per cent genuine. It was a great honour for myself and my family and something I will always cherish.
A band which plays songs such as ‘Death Knell’ or ‘Prime Mover’ can’t just stand on the stage with a shirt and jeans-jacket. It must be more awesome than that.
On a show like ‘Oz,’ I was wearing Dickies and a cut-off shirt and a gold cross.
I think metal and horror definitely go hand in hand. Even when you go to a horror convention and meet the fans, nine out of 10 times if they’re not wearing some sort of horror shirt, they’re wearing a shirt with a metal band on it.
When I put on my first Man Utd training kit, it felt enormous in a way that was really special in kind of like a childhood dream type way. Obviously, we don’t have that history in the U.S., so to be able to put on a shirt like that as an American was really special.
A Georgian man’s shirt had a long tail, which he tucked between his legs rather like a nappy. Over it went his ‘breech liners’, the long, linen forerunners of drawers. All of this was intended to keep his unwashable outer clothes free from the sweat and stink of his skin.
I knew about holiness, never having missed a Sunday-school class since I started at four years. But if Jews were also religious, how could our neighbor with the grease-grimy shirt use the word ‘damn’ about them?
To me, it’s just another game of football – 11 players, a grass pitch. Regardless what shirt I have on, it’s important you win the game, and I’m competitive as anyone, and I want to win every game, whether it’s a Sunday league game, a five-a-side tournament, or a World Cup qualifier.
I tend to scribble down notes, lyrics or just random thoughts on pieces of paper, backs of cigarette packs, sometimes on my shirt cuff.
I’m proud to have played 14 matches at the World Cup with the number ten shirt and to have scored eight goals.
I wore that same shirt yesterday playing golf. There goes the Nike account.
I played for Chelsea for three-and-a-half years and I gave them my best to win against them and show my quality again. I didn’t have anything to prove to them. I wanted to show my new club that I deserve to wear this Manchester United shirt.
In any football I have played in – and I have played in League One and as an international at the World Cup – the bare minimum is running around and showing the desire for the shirt. Then, the higher you go up the leagues, your football takes control of that.
The thing about the basics is they don’t really change – it’s the details and the proportions that change. The shirt may be cut slimmer or looser, the suit might be darker or lighter, the sneakers might not have laces, but you’re still talking about shirts and suits and sneakers.
It’s down to us to play, do our job and honour the shirt that we pull on, so as to ensure we send the fans away happy.
Shirt collars are very important to me. Putting a very soft shirt collar with a formal suit doesn’t work for me at all.
You go to Brooklyn, everybody’s got a beard and plaid shirt. They may be able to tell each other apart, but they all look alike to me.
Too many rockers put on the leather pants and shirt first. But if you write good songs, the pants and shirt will follow.
It’s the most gratifying thing to have young girls telling me, ‘I love that you do a photo shoot in pants and a button up shirt, and you still look cool.’
I need to have proper equipment when I work out, and the Nike Frees are light, comfortable, and great for training. I also usually bring a short-sleeve or long-sleeve compression shirt and a pair of shorts.
I have to say that clubs like Piacenza, Atalanta, and Parma always call me, they make me feel important. Probably they also appreciated me as a man, not just as a player. But after everything I’ve experienced with the Rossoneri’s shirt, I think it’s right that I end my career at Milan.
I find my dress sense tends to be a bit of a mixture between high fashion and unique vintage pieces with a little bit of street trends. For example, I might find a really nice, suede dinner jacket that I’d wear with a basic plain white shirt and some chinos and a pair of Nike trainers.
When I first came out, I kinda overdid it. I dressed extremely older-boyish, like sagging, and big shirt and big jeans. I was just like, ‘I’m gonna go extreme.’ And then as I got older, the baggy clothes got a little more fitting to my body, but still masculine.
