A Quote by Lisa Jewell

When I was a little girl, I was a real, drippy bookworm. But when I went into fashion, I stopped reading.

A bookworm in bed with a new novel and a good reading lamp is as much prepared for pleasure as a pretty girl at a college dance.

Phyllis McGinley

I don't know what drippy means, but it's not very nice. To be drippy. I don't feel like I drip much at all.

Helen Baxendale

I love reading, I'm such a bookworm.

Georgia Toffolo

I am not a good professional of fashion. I am not an expert about how clothes are constructed or the history of fashion. I never start with fashion. I always think of the girl and her personality - because all that matters to me when you look at a page is, "Do you want to be that girl?"

Carine Roitfeld

I was a huge bookworm as a kid, and you could usually find me reading something with a dragon on its cover.

Julie Kagawa

I think the part I enjoy most is reading the scripts and screening films because I'm a bookworm and a movie buff.

Rebecca Eaton

With fashion, my mother was an icon, but she never lived it in the sense that she was never obsessed with fashion. When I was a young girl, my sister wasn't doing fashion, so I started fashion thinking, 'I'm going to do something that they haven't done yet.' That was my silly scheme at the time.

Lou Doillon

A friend once told me that the real message Bram Stoker sought to convey in 'Dracula' is that a human being needs to live hundreds and hundreds of years to get all his reading done; that Count Dracula, basically nothing more than a misunderstood bookworm, was draining blood from the necks of 10,000 hapless virgins not because he was the apotheosis of pure evil but because it was the only way he could live long enough to polish off his extensive reading list. But I have no way of knowing if this is true, as I have not yet found time to read 'Dracula.

Joe Queenan

Since I was a little girl, I have always been interested in make-up and fashion.

I was a library rat and a bookworm. I read all the time. I walked to school reading books. I read under my desk.

Chelsea Cain

I loved fashion, ever since I was a little girl, which I know sounds cliche, but it is true.

Sistine Stallone

It was only when I began modeling at 18 that I really began enjoying fashion and reading any fashion magazine I could get my hands on, and developing a profound respect for designers, fashion and how to wear it.

Poppy Delevingne

My mom read French 'Elle' when I was a little girl, and so, when I was 15 or 16, I said, 'I want to work in fashion.'

Carine Roitfeld

Fashion is also a form of art, and like every kind of art, it has its own way of expression. In other words, if a dress looks better on a thin girl, on a catwalk, during a very specific moment of time and space then it's represented as part of a "fashion Show". It is after all a "Show" and it has to be understood by people that it is a "show" and not real life.

Sonia Rykiel

I've always sang a little like a 16-year-old girl, but even Ann-Margret stopped after a while and brought it down a bit.

Leslie Jordan

To be honest, before I joined the industry, I knew very little about the fashion world, and I hardly knew any name brands. Probably because the price tags were a little too high, and home girl needed to work.
