I love this post from Style PS. It best describes every encounter I’ve had with a fashion designer I admire, in which I lapse into groupie mode and can’t do anything about it. It’s worse if friends are with me. They can’t understand what the big deal is and why I ‘m having palpitations. And I just stand there star struck. Nuts I know. What can I say? I’m a fashion junkie.

“It’s like cinema…..Lots of boys and girls want to do it, but very few make it. Sadly, Nicole Kidmans are thin on the ground. To do this job you must be able to accept injustice - the same goes for fashion. There are other careers. You can work for Social Security, get promoted and work behind a counter. It’s a safe bet. If you want social justice, be a civil servant. Fashion is ephemeral, dangerous and unfair.” - Karl Lagerfeld on working within the fashion industry in his documentary Lagerfeld Confidential.

“It is extremely upsetting for our store to be attacked in this way. They seem to be targeting high-end stores with increasing frequency which is worrying.” – Anya Hindmarch in the Evening Standard talking about the recent wave of store thefts
