Fashions, after all, are only induced epidemics.
Fashion may renew itself every six months, but one thing remains the same: bouncers always wear black.[Apesar de a moda renovar-se a cada seis meses, uma coisa continua exatamente igual: os seguranças na porta estão sempre com ternos negros.]
Fashion is what one wears oneself. What is unfashionable is what other people wear.
Every generation laughs at the old fashions, but follows religiously the new.
