Jess C. Scott
“Killing animals to make a fashion statement = a sickening + cold-blooded vanity.”
Jess C. Scott, Skins, Animal Stories

Jim Butcher
“Kincaid, evidently exhausted himself, drew a gun, took the safety off, placed it on his chest, and went to sleep too.

"It's cute," I whispered to Murphy. "He has a teddy Glock.”
Jim Butcher, Small Favor

Jim Butcher
“Kincaid rounded the far corner. He was dressed in his customary black clothing again, fatigue pants, and a hunting jacket over body armor, and he had enough guns strapped to his body to outfit a terrorist cell, or a Texan nuclear family.”
Jim Butcher, Small Favor

Karl Wiggins
“Wrong Planet people tend to dress slightly differently from Rag, Tag & Bobtail. My son, Kai, always used to say that I have my own swag, meaning that my style of clothing is different from a lot of people. Not radically so, I’m not completely outrageous – although I’ve probably had my moments – but my clothes are often quite different from everybody else’s, who for the most part socialise in the same kind of shirts they wear to work.
I was wearing shirts or jackets 20 years ago that are only just starting to come into fashion nowadays. I can’t explain this, I’m hardly a trend-setter, just that I’ve always liked that style.”
Karl Wiggins, Wrong Planet - Searching for your Tribe

“People invariably ask Carefree Scamps, “Where did you get that jumper?” or, “Where did you get that dress?” The answer is quite possibly Camden Market, but they won’t be able to remember. They’ll simply answer something like, “I dunno, I’ve had it for ages.”
Karl Wiggins, Wrong Planet - Searching for your Tribe

“The fashion look of teens and twentysomethings -once so cutting edge- is now, like most of the music played on the radio, a matter of routine. Safe, tired, everywhere.”
Phil Strongman, Pretty Vacant: A History of UK Punk

“Always stay young with your looks, your thoughts should speak your maturity”
Binoy Boban

“Fashion is an emotional theater through which we carry ourselves in a scenic stage where we get to be a representative of the world. Nothing beats the feeling of conveying a message through one’s imagination, design, and motivating others to live a meaningful life. To me, that is sexy.”
Luis Enrique Cavazos

“The price of your birthday outfits should go costlier with respect to the ages you lived.”
Anwesha Mohanty (Anny)

Viv Albertine
“I've got so used to my life being challenging and fraught with danger that I don't question it any more. Whether I’m knocking on the door of a hardcore sex shop, walking through suburban streets being verbally abused and spat on, or being threatened on the tube, I don't give in. I don’t dress normally to have an easy life. The pilgrimage down the King’s Road to get to the Shop (Sex: everyone calls it ‘the Shop’), the place I want to hang out and buy stuff, is one of the scariest things I do — running the gauntlet of teds who want to kill people like me — but nothing will stop me looking the way I want. It’s a commitment.”

“Vivienne [Westwood] and Malcolm [McLaren] use clothes to shock, irritate and provoke a reaction but also to inspire change. Mohair jumpers, knitted on big needles, so loosely that you can see all the way through them, T-shirts slashed and written on by hand, seams and labels on the outside, showing the construction of the piece; these attitudes are reflected in the music we make. It’s ok not to be perfect, to show the workings of your life and your mind in your songs and your clothes. And everything you do in life is meaningful on a political level. That’s why we’re all merciless about each other’s failings and why sloppiness is derided.”

“Fashion in Africa has always been Sustainable for decades. We just didn’t use the catchy buzzwords”
Belinda Smetana

Anastasia Pash
“London is a melting pot of diverse cultures, which makes it fertile soil for an eclectic art, music, and culture scene. London keeps a firm grip on its history and origins, which is evident in the way the locals dress.”
Anastasia Pash, Travel With Style: Master the Art of Stylish and Functional Travel Capsules
