“I really do want people to listen to the music more than watch what I ...” — Marina and the Diamonds Quote

I really do want people to listen to the music more than watch what I wear. There's time for that later. I've got the rest of my life to dress up and look nice.

I'm masquerading as an innocent pop star.

I criticized the whole American songwriting industry and the pop side of it and I was bitter about it. And I stepped back and thought 'Why are you bitter? You can't just stand there like every other indie musician and criticize this so-called 'generic' music when you're not doing anything to challenge that.'

I actually quite like promo, which is quite odd for an artist, but recording's not the easiest thing.

When I got into junior high school, that's when my mom let me dress how I wanted to dress. Up to that point I wore suits to school all the time.

The way you dress is an expression of your personality.

I always like a fun dress with a good print that shows off the legs.

A woman's dress should be like a barbed-wire fence: serving its purpose without obstructing the view.

Those who make their dress a principal part of themselves, will, in general, become of no more value than their dress.
