Fashion is not frivolous











"Fashion is not frivolous. It is a part of being alive today."

"The fashionable woman wears clothes. The clothes don't wear her."

"Snobbery has gone out of fashion, and in our shops you will find duchesses jostling with typists to buy the same dress."

“I love vulgarity, good taste is death, vulgarity is life.”

"A woman is as young as her knees."

RIP, the Swinging Dame Mary Quant OBE, FCSD, RDI (11th February 1934 - 13th April 2023)
