There was a day where I was sitting at my desk, working 90-hour work weeks, in a suit, looking at a computer, with all these pitch books on my desk, and I just thought, ‘This can’t be my life.’
I kept the same suit for six years and the same dialogue. They just changed the title of the picture and the leading lady.
So often we try to alter circumstances to suit ourselves, instead of letting them alter us, which is what they are meant to do.
Be able to go shopping for a bathing suit and not become depressed afterward.
Go far – too far you cannot, still the farther. The more experience finds you: and go sparing. One meal a week will serve you, and one suit, through all your travels; for you’ll find it certain.
I can think of only two or three songs out of hundreds I’ve recorded that I performed as originally written. I like to become intimate with the material and change it to suit me.
I lose my bags all the time. Sometimes for two months. One of the worst times was when I had come from France and I had packed cheese, because I was really crazy about camembert, so I have this really nice suit that stinks of camembert, no matter how many times I dry clean it.
There are a lot of times where, filming ‘It Follows,’ I’m fighting against a guy dressed in a green suit for special effects, and I’m just like, ‘No. There’s no way this is going to be pulled off.’
I am convinced that the best service a retired general can perform is to turn in his tongue along with his suit and to mothball his opinions.
Today there are more things you can wear for the same occasions. I still like this idea of the perfect suit, and I always love tailoring, but today you can have more things for this type of situation, clothes that have class and that are mixable, and that are super well cut.
I like to drink to suit my location.
When you’re a curvy girl, it can be hard to find a suit that fits perfectly in all the right places, but Target definitely has accomplished that with their swimwear.
One of the great joys of life, now that you can afford a nice suit, is getting one for free. That’s why I like to do press tours – I always say making movies is just an excuse to get free clothing.
The genesis of Donald Trump’s relationship with Paul Manafort begins with Roy Cohn. That Roy Cohn: Joe McCarthy’s heavy-lidded henchman, lawyer to the Genovese family. During the ’70s, Trump and his father hired Cohn as their lawyer to defend the family against a housing discrimination suit.
A lot of people look back ten years ago and go, ‘Why was I wearing that?’ I look back a year ago and say the same thing. The craziest outfit I ever wore was this white suit that I wore to an awards show in L.A. that I teamed with yellow shoes. It was interesting. It popped.
I’ve always liked wearing black. Hats with veils would suit me just fine.
I would love to sing. I would love to do a musical, but I wouldn’t say that that singing is my strong suit.
My mother’s favorite photograph was one of herself at twenty-four years old, unbearably beautiful, utterly glamorous, in a black-straw cartwheel hat, dark-red lipstick, and a smart black suit, her notepad on a cocktail table. I know nothing about that woman.
But let me be honest, I would rather wear a hazmat suit on holiday than get caught by a camera in swimwear.
When you have a gown, there’s much more to be concerned about. Where is this crease falling? Are you making a weird shape with the dress? Are you doing the designer justice? With a bathing suit, it’s more about you and the mood you convey.
I was looking at a photograph of the 1997 election campaign yesterday, and I thought: ‘My God. Did I really have that hairstyle? And that Tory blue suit?’
There are so many women throughout the world who appreciate beautiful design and have the budget to buy designer fashion but sometimes have a hard time finding the things that they really want or that suit their lifestyle or their culture or whatever it may be.
I wear the same black suit. I have five of them. I pair them with a red scarf. I was wearing a red scarf when I won the first architectural competition of my career.
Yes, because as composers we are looking for textured voices, and often the singers we find are not trained to perform in a studio environment. So we need technology to doctor their voices to suit the format.
If I was to buy a suit, I’d probably go to Men’s Wearhouse – because you’re going to like the way you look; they guarantee it.
Even if certain rogue countries do things we wish nobody did, it doesn’t necessarily mean that their foolishness should justify our following suit.
For my very first September issue, I put Naomi Campbell on the cover. She was wearing this orange Anne Klein sequin suit – it would probably look incredibly ’80s today.
I make a lot of mistakes. One time I mixed dark blue and black in a suit.
The first time I put on the hijab, it felt weird, like I was wearing a scuba-diving suit kind of thing.
I loved pretending to be a middle-aged Jewish woman. I just wanted to do what I saw Gilda Radner and Carol Burnett doing. But I’m not a particularly good impressionist. It was never my strong suit.
On stage, I wear my ‘uniform’ – my all white and flowy suit. It makes me feel ‘in-my-body’ and sensual.
I am not afraid of being sued by white businessmen. In fact, I should welcome such a law suit.
There is no way to order chaos. It’s the fundamental theory at the beginning and end of everything; it’s the ultimate law of nature. There’s no way to win against unpredictability, to suit up completely against accidents.
I forget what I wore for my first encounter with Mark Zuckerberg. I know it wasn’t a suit – that would have seemed out of place in the rigorously casual world of Facebook. I probably wore what I usually wear, a pair of jeans and a Gap T-shirt, maybe my black sneakers.
As far as comfort and convenience, men have it all over the girls. A man can wear the same suit every day of the week with different shirts and ties, but a woman needs an extensive wardrobe. I can understand how women on the go wear pantsuits and slacks.
I have learned very quickly where my strengths are, and color coordination of particular things is not a strong suit.
My style has been nurtured over time. It’s more about knowing what doesn’t suit you. I love suits and anything sharp, and I know that shape suits me. I don’t feel feminine in floaty dresses with spaghetti straps – I feel more like Freddie Mercury in drag.
As a kid, I remember wearing a checkered suit and appearing on-stage in the routines worked out by the ‘baggy pants’ comedians.
If technology and communications can adapt to people’s modern lifestyles, then why can’t our labor laws follow suit? Private-sector businesses continue to live under an outdated federal mandate that says the only way to compensate for overtime is through cash wages.
I like to be comfortable. If I go out, if it’s a premiere, I’ll put on a suit and look nice. I like Hugo Boss for that.
It’s one of the nice things about this nation that when the Constitution is violated, if it affects you, you can bring a suit.
The straps that suspend a man’s trousers from his shoulders – known in the U.S. as ‘suspenders’ and in Britain as ‘braces’ – are always correct with a summer suit made of seersucker, linen, or silk.
I’ve done many body scans. Every time your character fights in a different look, they’ll rescan you. Because my character has taken so long to get a super suit, every time Mon-El fights, he’s in something different.
I once made myself black out by pulling G too quickly while flying an F-18. Being unconscious in a single-seat airplane is not good. Fortunately, I woke up in time. I learned how to better plug-in my anti-G suit.
I think the way a person dresses is an expression of their personality, and I appreciate a well-tailored suit and the work that goes into it. But when it comes to fashion, on a scale of one to ten, I’m a two.
I don’t like being compared to other kickers. Kicking, I’ve always felt, was my weak suit. The only area of kicking I was really proud of was that I was good under pressure. If all I had to do was worry about kicking, I’d have been much more proficient.
Every suit I wear is custom-made by a guy named Waraire Boswell in L.A.
Growing up in Europe, tight clothing is pretty standard. When I got to college, clothes were loose, so I was going toward more loose stuff. As soon as I got back to New York, I started wearing suits 25% of the year. Then, I realized how important it is for the suit to really fit you and be tight.
Therefore, I feel convinced that any political picture can be changed to suit the needs of the powers that be.
For me that’s one of the great indulgences in life – a hand-tailored suit, and a great pair of handmade shoes.
Jurgen Klopp is certainly a great coach. I think he has demonstrated at Dortmund that he can suit any team in the world.
I think people psych themselves out before they listen to jazz a lot, thinking that they have to, like, put on a suit or something. That’s not what it is.
Bashar al-Assad’s henchmen stomped on the hands of famed Syrian cartoonist Ali Farzat. Our dictators tailor wounds to suit their victims’ occupations.
The Beatles exist apart from myself. I am not really Beatle George. Beatle George is like a suit or shirt that I once wore on occasion, and until the end of my life, people may see that shirt and mistake it for me.
