I always look at Style.com and look at all the designers and I know all the model's names.
I haven't been to Berlin Fashion Week before, but it's really on the up. Being an artist as well as a model, I know that the art world is booming here, so it makes sense that fashion would feel that effect, too.
I wanted to be a fashion designer.
Modeling for a year taught me a lot. I got very involved in the fashion industry and met a bunch of people who I admired.
The New York fashion scene is crazy, madness, but I love the energy.
I don't like modeling, but in terms of the places I got to visit, it was great.
For me, fashion begins in New York.
I love to design. I am a commercial fashion designer. I always design jackets with two sleeves. I don't design jackets with three sleeves, or the layers and layers come off like little dolls from Russia. Fashion for me is a creative endeavor, but it is not art for me.
I think modelling was like the university of life, really. You get to travel but you get thrown into this adult world, which is kind of quite scary.
When I was little, I never wanted to be a model or really thought of doing this job. I'm from a small city, Yongzhou Hunan in the south of China - not a big place for fashion.
The fashion world has become a lot more embracing of me since I became an actress.
There will never be a chanel collection without black
I didn't really enjoy modeling in Bombay. I floated through it in the hopes that I would get my ticket to the next big thing. There was no real joy that I got out of it, to be really honest.
'Vogue' is a very specific world. You are 'Vogue,' or not 'Vogue.'
Right now I'd say my favorite fashion designer is Zac Posen.
I'm not interested in how people dress. Of course, I recognize if somebody's elegant. But fashion doesn't interest me.
I love Chanel.
I really love Celine. Obviously. Alexander Wang. Givenchy. Those are probably my main favorites. Dolce & Gabbana, too.
Haute couture is a legitimate subject for Yves Saint Laurent and could resume one day.
When I was younger, I had no interest. But after I went to Paris to see the collections for the first time a few years ago, they made a huge impression on me. I realized that fashion is an art form, like acting or painting.
I don't really like fashion.
Fashion designers seem the busiest people on the planet.
The last time a straight man worked in the fashion industry, we got a fanny pack.
A fashion photographer is nothing without clothes and hair and makeup. And when I speak to other photographers, a lot of them can't reference a picture by the designer. Me, I say, 'The Balenciaga.' And I go to the shows. I feel like it's my business.
I just feel the traditional runway format is old-fashioned.
