Patrick J. Adams Quotes

It's not about having a plethora of suits, but having a few good ones. It's all about fit. The contour of your body. If your shoulders are broad, you shouldn't have shoulder pads. If you're not a big man, you shouldn't have extra space. I think it's definitely worth having it properly fitted.

Men's wear is all about tailoring.

It really comes down to fit. When it comes to a suit, for example, it's important that the shoulders fit you well; the length of the pants are important.

I have always loved fashion since I was a kid and customized my school uniforms.

When I was working with Tom Ford, he would just look at me and ask, 'Will you wear it?' I'd say, 'Ah, too long, too short, lower waist, deeper V, unbutton' - that sort of thing. I don't create clothes, but I definitely know how to make them come alive.

I can make 10 jackets of the same colour, same two pockets and same length, that will look like 10 completely different jackets when you put them on.

I love a good suit.

I've always made my own clothes since I was a little girl. I was a terrible sewer, but I was always cutting and customising.
