I’ve been fortunate most of the seven promotions I’ve won have been with sides I built from zero, so it is doubly rewarding. There is nothing to match being in the dressing room celebrating promotion after a long season with a group of lads you have put together.
I’ve had people sneak into dressing rooms. They’re harmless. They just like to brag.
Many stories come from the dressing room that one doesn’t speak when you are playing but can do once retired.
I love dressing up. But I’m very low-maintenance; the week before an event, I’ll choose something as quickly as possible and that’s that. If I can do my own hair and make-up, even better. I like it to be fun.
I think I’m a girl’s girl in the sense that I support women a lot, and I’m definitely all for girl power, but I think I’m quite a tomboy at heart – even though I love my fashion and dressing up, I think my essence is very boyish.
I don’t have a reputation of being a super-witch who demands pink rugs in the dressing room.
There’s nothing sexy about doing a nude scene. It’s rather uncomfortable. I like dressing up rather than dressing down.
I’m either dressing like a rocker chick, or I’m looking like I just stepped out of ancient Greece! It all depends on my mood. I love bohemian vibes, too.
I remember going to Bob Preston’s dressing room because I was losing a laugh – as you do in a long run. He said, ‘Give me the script. That’s where you’re going off the road.’ That’s comedy. It’s never the line itself; it’s in the foundation.
I just think when you are dressing a celebrity, for me, I’m hopefully adding a moment. I always say, ‘What role do you want to play?’ when we start a fitting.
I love the dressing up, I love the fashion, I think that’s all part of it. Particularly Australian designers are really exciting and all of that’s really fun.
I love dressing up – it makes me feel good. I think most people get that feeling when they put on a well-tailored suit. It like, boosts your IQ, your confidence, everything. And I think that that needs to come back into the norm more.
I wake up every morning and I feel like I’m juggling glass balls. I live in Los Angeles, my business is run out of London, and most evenings I’m cuddled up in front of Skype, in my dressing gown, speaking with my studio in London. I travel a lot, my team travel a lot, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.
When he realized who he’d pulled over, the policeman shook his head in disbelief. He told me of all people I should know better. He gave me a real dressing down, but let me go.
In my world, the dressing room was sacrosanct. The only time anyone was permitted to take pictures in there was when we had won a trophy.
The wrap dress is the most traditional form of dressing: It’s like a robe, it’s like a kimono, it’s like a toga. It doesn’t have buttons or zippers. What made it different was that it was jersey; therefore, it was close to the body and it was a print.
I’ve never been interested in dressing one woman. What’s interested me was to have a philosophy. It hasn’t been important to put a woman in a blue dress. I wanted to dress women who wanted to look at themselves. To stand out. To be women who were not part of the crowd. A woman who fights and advances.
When we got with George, he didn’t care what was happening. He liked how crazy we were looking and dressing. I kinda liked being with George more so at the time, because George let us do what we wanted to do. But I needed both lessons.
I like dressing up for dates and dissecting a dinner conversation with a new guy to determine if he might be The One.
Once you’re comfortable with the way that you’re dressing, you express yourself a lot more, and you’re just able to have a lot more fun.
I started out pursuing an acting career out of college when I lived in Los Angeles. When I got an entry into broadcasting, I preferred it. I liked being me, rather than dressing up to be someone else. Now I’m 30 and doing a career of my own and have been in this career for eight years.
I always try to manipulate the eye when I’m dressing myself or someone else. I don’t have an hourglass figure, so I’m always trying to give the illusion that I have one; bringing the eye to the waistline by adding a belt or having a heavier print at the bottom or at the top helps define your shape.
When I arrived at Juventus as the manager in 1999, Antonio Conte was the captain of the club, an Italy international, and a player who had a lot of influence in the dressing room – and when I needed a leader in the team, he was the obvious choice.
You can go one of two ways with festive dressing. All of the sparkles can be about the outfit or the accessories but not both.
People on the outside see a Neymar on the pitch, but that’s not him. People see him doing tricks and dribbles and think that he is only trying to enjoy himself, that he’s selfish and only thinks about himself. But when you share a dressing room with him you realise that it’s not the case.
When I joined the Lakers and moved to L.A., I started getting more serious about collecting sneakers and dressing from the feet up.
Sunderland, West Ham and Orlando City wanted me but Villa wouldn’t sell me, saying I was too vital in the dressing room.
At the end of the day, I know that I make my living by dressing up, fooling around, playing pranks and giving people a good time. I am enjoying the ride.
I love the theater. I love being on stage; I love the live audience. I also love dressing up and all of the make-believe.
‘Seba’ Veron was one of the best players I shared a dressing room with. Not only was he technically gifted and could pass the ball accurately over distance, not only could he anticipate where players would run, but he also ran himself.
After a great save or a mistake by a defender, I prefer not to shout on him; I prefer to wait and say it inside of the dressing room. I was always like that. I am relaxed, I try to be normal after a mistake, and when I make a mistake, I don’t want people coming to me on the pitch shouting at me.
I love the ’60s – that’s my comfort zone as far as dressing goes.
I love ’80s music, but in the dressing room, it tends to be more lively!
For people that don’t have any interest in the psychology of nuance, who need everything to be in their face, who don’t want to analyze… those aren’t the people I romanticize about dressing.
My earliest memories are at the Blue Note here in New York or backstage at different theatres or different clubs, dressing rooms.
When you’re dressing on a budget, simplicity is key.
I found myself trying to appeal to the ‘Half Baked’ crowd and I wasn’t that guy. It’s like dressing up as Batman every day. It’s not Halloween every day. It’s fun on Halloween, but I can’t dress up in that outfit every day when I’m not that anymore or never was that guy.
Shooting a movie should be fun! It’s not a real job. It can be hard, but at the end of the day, we’re dressing up and playing pretend.
I believe in comfortable yet stylish dressing.
Dressing up, for me, is looking like an idiot.
I’m not some sort of tormented soul looking for an identity in the roles I take. I became an actress because I just love dressing up and playing.
For me, I’ve always loved style, because I’ve always loved dressing different and being unique and maybe wearing stuff no one else would wear, and I feel like that really carries over into my same taste in interior design.
I don’t like to be rushed. I plan my outfits for the week in advance. I find the appropriate outfit for each occasion, try it on, make sure it is in good condition and have it all ready with shoes, handbag and accessories laid out in my dressing room. Fashion is such a huge part of my career, I have to think ahead.
Styling is such a small part of what I do. I have, like, 10 jobs. People don’t know that I work so much on the back end of things. They think I’m just dressing people. My business is with brands.
I love being a writer. I have a great life. I get up in the morning and pad around in my dressing gown and listen to Radio 4.
Ashlee Simpson kicking her dressing room door after getting caught lip-synching – that was interesting to watch.
At night, I love dressing up. I love putting on an outfit.
For our first album, we were our own dressers. We didn’t have no stylists. We came up with all of the ideas when it came to dressing. At that time, Cross Colours and Jabos were really popular, so we were able to get stuff from them, but we always added accessories.
Growing up in Bloomington, Minn., I loved the ritual of dressing for Little League – in white socks, blue stirrups, belted pants, a double-knit jersey, and the cap I’d hold over my face to screen out mosquitoes in right field.
The dressing room is not the place where you show emotion.
I would like to be remembered as the reporter who snuck back stage to all the off-limits shows, be it the Vatican dressing room, the Pentagon war room, or the Celtics locker room. Some curtains ought never to be pulled back; others deserve to be ripped down. When appropriate, I want to be the curtain remover.
My object in life is not simply to make money for myself or to spend it on myself in dressing or running around in an automobile, but I love to use a part of what I make in trying to help others.
When I think about old Hollywood and the glamour of those days, women like Grace Kelly, Marilyn Monroe, and Audrey Hepburn were not dressing the way some girls dress today. There was a certain mystery about them, and I feel like that’s gone in our industry.
