More quotes by Agyness Deyn
I'm like a boomerang, I always come back.
Agyness Deyn
I've always got on with lads, more than I have with girls.
Agyness Deyn
It is so inspiring when you come across a woman who is very strong and dedicated and is amazing at what they do. That's how I feel about Meryl Streep. You watch her, and you can't help but notice all of that about her. She's so influential.
Agyness Deyn
I wish it were different, but my body clock wakes me up between 6:30 and 7:30 a.m. I was even talking yesterday about how, if I want to get enough sleep, I have to be in bed at 10. That means I'm totally a grandma.
Agyness Deyn
I can't do modeling disconnected. And I thought, What do I like? What do I love about modeling? And what I love is that it's such a creative process, with a bunch of people, and I wanted that more, which is how the acting thing came about.
Agyness Deyn
Not just in modeling, but in society, there's so much pressure about what a woman should be, and, of course, it's just so unobtainable. You can never become that thing, because it's such a projection.
Agyness Deyn
It will appeal to girls who are confident and have a strong personal expression of style and identity in the way that they dress and what this says about themselves.
Agyness Deyn
I definitely believe that love conquers all, yes.
Agyness Deyn
I get on with all my exes, so there's nothing I need to forget about. I don't know - life is shorter than it seems.
Agyness Deyn
I suppose I have stopped modeling officially. I've not done any for a good long while now. I think it was four years ago when my feelings were changing towards the industry. I didn't hate it, but I was yearning to do something different. I was on a gradient. It was a gradual thing.
Agyness Deyn
I know I'm no Whitney Houston.
Agyness Deyn
Everything about acting drives me and gives me the need to really try it. It's an evolution - doing the same thing for 12 years is kind of a chunk. Anyone would be up for a little bit of a change. It is so rewarding to do a movie, and so enjoyable. It's hard work, but really wonderful.
Agyness Deyn
I feel like every project that I've been doing, I've learned something about myself. It's like I've cracked something, or my vision of myself has gotten wider. I'm just learning and growing, and overcoming the fear.
Agyness Deyn
I don't really go to fashion parties they're not my scene.
Agyness Deyn
For modelling, you have to be such a strong person in a way – or seen to be a strong person, do you know what I mean? But in acting you have to get in touch with all the vulnerability that you carry.
Agyness Deyn
I'm not oblivious to that connotation of changing careers, so I'm just going in and doing the job. I think that you can't fake doing the job. All I want to do is deliver. That's my focus.
Agyness Deyn
My mum used to always dress me and my sister in matching Laura Ashley dresses. And I'd be like, 'Mum, I just wanna wear my Doc Martens!
Agyness Deyn
For modeling, I was always creating characters. I dress like a tomboy. So, when I'd go into a shoot, there'd be all these dresses, and I'd say to myself, 'Okay, this isn't me. It's somebody else. So, who is this person?' Acting is the next level of that.
Agyness Deyn
I suppose each project is a new thing, so there's all this excitement and nerves about this new thing. Every single thing is like a new thing, so it's never what I expect. I don't know what to expect for the next thing. There are always different people. It's interesting.
Agyness Deyn
A lot of stuff written about me is rubbish. I don't know where they get it from, sometimes.
