I live in the Dark Ages, the 17th century. Actually, I would have loved to be in Paris in the early 20th century when the Ballets Russes were there and Chanel was designing.

Iris Apfel

I joined the Ballets Russes when I was 14, and my name was changed twice. I was known as Marie Istomina, then as Felia Siderova. When I went to Hollywood and made my first movie, 'Mission to Moscow,' in 1943, I became Lily Norwood.

Cyd Charisse

I like dramatic ballets, particularly if they're ballets in which I have a chance to go from one extreme of style or characterization to another.

Suzanne Farrell

I've never really been interested in the vintage photos people pay lots of money for -- civil war tintypes or old daguerrotypes of famous people. Nor do I have any interest in the really gross, dark stuff that some people pay top-dollar, like post-mortem photos of babies (yuck) or press photos of old murder scenes or whatever. I collect in these little niches most other people don't care about -- dark-and-weird-but-fun -- and photos that have been written on, which a lot of sellers think hurts their value. All of which is good news for me!

Ransom Riggs

Nothing is harder to create than brilliant comic ballets, except maybe brilliant full-evening comic ballets.

Robert Gottlieb

I love vintage shopping in flea markets, vintage stores and even Ebay.

Chelsea Leyland

I just love vintage. I have far too many vintage dresses.

Karen Elson

We're not going the photography route. I think there is a real distinction between photos and images, and Flickr is for photos, and Instagram is for photos. You wouldn't put a filter on a meme; you'd put a filter on top of a photo that came from your camera.

Alan Schaaf

It's good to mix high street and designer and vintage. I'm a big fan of vintage stuff.

Kelly Brook

I love vintage and I shop vintage a lot because it's just such great value for money.

Lianne La Havas

I've got a lot of '70s vintage. I'm a huge vintage junkie.

Juno Temple

I've always been inspired by vintage clothing and vintage styles.

Violet Chachki

What bothers people more than anything is that I'm an old guy taking photos of them. But maybe if you look at the photos, 20, 30 years later, it's not going to matter who took the photos. I mean, they would just be there. People will hopefully get over that.

Richard Kern

I am a big fan of vintage clothing! I love vintage pieces, because they are more affordable and original.

Cynthia Bailey

I don't do the vintage thing so much, just because it's not me. There are some vintage designers I'll buy things from, but mostly not.

Virgil Abloh

I have a lot of vintage, so my style is pretty eclectic of different time periods and styles. I would describe it as comfortable, creative, and vintage.

Isabel Lucas
