A Quote by Kerry Washington

I don't gravitate toward any one designer because I think of fashion as the costume of the everyday woman.

I graduated from Academy of Fashion and Costume Design in Rome. At first, I thought I was going to be a costume designer for films, and then I ended up working in fashion - not as a designer, but mostly as a model.

Isabella Rossellini

Fashion designing involves a lot of work, and, as opposed to the general perception, it is different from costume designing for films. While a fashion designer can take up a costume designer's role, it is not possible vice versa.

Keerthy Suresh

I enjoyed studying costume, learning about the corsetry and the historical context of fashion. I never had any real intention of being a costume designer.

Georgina Chapman

I think women gravitate toward me because I am a woman producing and songwriting, and there's none out there. There really isn't.

Linda Perry

I'm a fashion designer. What I do is artistic, but I'm not an artist because everything I do is destined to be sold. That's not to say that you can't be an artist and a fashion designer. I think some designers are artists.

Tom Ford

People like to stir up the fashion vs. costume world, and I think what they mean by 'too costumey' is that it's too much, or not real enough for everyday wear. You couldn't say that about John Galliano's shows, right? I mean, they're awesome, and they're total costume.

Colleen Atwood

I think when you're a bigger star you get many good scripts sent to you, and you have to choose which one you're going to gravitate toward, but I just try to gravitate toward the best-written one that's been thrown my way after a lot of girls have passed on it.

Amanda Peet

I'm a costume designer. My career is not in fashion, a field I'm basically unfamiliar with.

Chris March

Playing a fashion designer could be the bane of my existence because I am married to a fashion designer.

Lori Loughlin

You see me, I wanted to be fashion designer. I became fashion designer. So I think that everything is possible.

Jean Paul Gaultier

Any time you talk about the look of the film, it's not just the director and the director of photography. You have to include the costume designer and the production designer.

Spike Lee

I would really think twice about being a fashion designer if I was young right now, especially being an independent fashion designer the way I started it.

Rick Owens

I don't know if women gravitate toward me, or I gravitate toward them.

Chris Messina

Be able to take any job that gives you experience on a film. Don't just think that you have to be in one department or the other, because through working on one and seeing what other people do in the movie makes you realize what your role is if you become a costume designer.

Colleen Atwood

You get to say, 'Here's my philosophical idea about what the costume should like,' and the costume designer comes and gives you choices and sometimes they're all good, and I say, 'What do you think?' and they pick the right thing.

John Sayles

I have always felt my role as a designer is to do the very best I can for a woman to make her look her best. Fashion is only fashion once a woman puts it on.

Oscar de la Renta
