“My mum was very glamorous, an incredible seamstress. She made up those...” — Grace Jones Quote

“My mum was very glamorous, an incredible seamstress. She made up those Vogue, Givenchy and Yves St. Laurent patterns they used to sell. It was church couture, darling! Because my dad was a pastor, she could get away with more than other women. Her skirts were that bit tighter.”

“It's important that the sexes understand each other.”

“When I was modelling, I spent half my life staring at thousands of perfect reflections. It got to a stage where I was losing all sense of reality - so after I quit modelling, I took all the mirrors out of my house.”

“Dior Couture is like art - they are the art pieces of a fashion house. Each piece is unique and made by hand.”

“For me, couture is like 35 mm. film. It's so important we school ourselves to see real quality. In a couture garment, as in a 35 mm. film, you really feel the life of the people who made it. In high-street fashion, it's different. There's no risk.”

“Look, I'm the best fighter Randy Couture has ever fought in his life.”
