“Not everybody reads poetry or listens to music, but every single person in the world gets up in the morning and puts on something, and whether you like it or not, that’s a statement about who you are.”
Dana Thomas, Gods and Kings: The Rise and Fall of Alexander McQueen and John Galliano

“Unlike perfume, handbags are visible on the body, and--like Air Jordans for teenagers--give the wearer the chance to brandish the logo and publicly declare her status or aspiration.”
Dana Thomas, Deluxe: How Luxury Lost Its Luster

Dana Thomas, Fashionopolis: The Price of Fast Fashion and the Future of Clothes
