This is the kind of fashion I grew up on - a good pair of trainers, great denim - and I will always love high-end streetwear.

Tinie Tempah

If you put the collections together, whether it's Rick Owens, Alexander Wang, or whomever, sometimes they do streetwear, but they're never called that. They're always called 'sportswear' or 'high-end' or 'luxury.' I feel like I'm tossed into that streetwear category so that I don't exist in this space.

Kerby Jean-Raymond

All clothes are worn on the street, but 'streetwear' had once described T-shirt brands and skate-inspired brands, and now it's just a lazy innuendo used to describe clothing made by designers that the establishment deems 'less than.'

Kerby Jean-Raymond

I go from streetwear to high-end fashion, to being formal and wearing suits.

Fabolous

I'm merely a fan of fashion from high end to streetwear, from Nike to Comme des Garcons.

Tinie Tempah

Streetwear for me is what I was raised wearing in London, and my style influences growing up were always people who wore streetwear.

Rita Ora

Even in the good sportswear, streetwear brands, you can't find that quality.

Christophe Lemaire

In my childhood I was obsessed with cameras but could not afford one. After much persuasion my father Harivansh Rai Bachchan bought me a box camera which I treasured for years. Initially I clicked trees and nature and as I grew up started noticing prettier things-motorbike, sleek cars and cool girls. But the hamartia of life is when you desire something you cannot afford it and when you are able to afford it you are too old to use it. Now I don't need all gadgets but it's satisfying to know that at least I can afford them.

Amitabh Bachchan

I grew up very poor, so I learned how to stretch a dollar. It's nice to combine high-end with low-end or whatever-end you want.

Azita Ghanizada

I'm gonna do clothes, but stuff that kids can afford. I want to get into the high fashion world very soon, but the stuff I want to start out with is the small stuff, for the kids, that anybody can afford the Nikes, or the Jordans, Or let's say they can't afford the big brand name clothes, so I would make a lower end line but still high-quality.

Chris Brown

For the most part, I'm very into sweatpants and cute tops from streetwear brands like Supreme and Palace for a '90s tomboy vibe.

Justine Skye

I grew up one of seven kids, and my mom couldn't afford to get us any of the $150 shoes.

Stephon Marbury

We aren't in high school. We aren't really in our families and we aren't in our houses. Those are the places we grew up and the times we spent together, but they aren't us. If think they are, then we're lost, because times end and places are lost. We aren't any place or any time . . . We are everywhere.

Ann Brashares

I've always felt like an outcast. My aesthetic is very high-end, but I still get classified as streetwear. There's really no other reason for than other than my age, the way I look, and where I'm from.

Kerby Jean-Raymond

If you can't afford the upkeep of your home, it makes no sense to do a reverse mortgage. You will just end up having to sell eventually when you realize you can't afford the home, and whether you have any equity left after the sale depends on the size of the reverse loan that must be settled.
