More quotes by Agyness Deyn
I dont have that many friends.
Agyness Deyn
I dress like a tomboy.
Agyness Deyn
To be supportive of myself, I have to go with what I want to do. I started acting and I was so mesmerized.
Agyness Deyn
I'm all alone. There has been no man in my life for several months now and although it would be nice to have a boyfriend, I can't just settle for anybody. The fact is I'm choosy, but mainly about a man's character. He has to be interesting, funny and clever. I don't even mind if he's not very good-looking.
Agyness Deyn
I want to play positive role models - women who mean something to other women.
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
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
When you're young, you say it how it is, and even your views are, like, 'This is totally the truth', 'cos you don't know any difference, so there's a real confidence in your way of thinking.
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 think modelling was like the university of life, really. You get to travel but you get thrown into this adult world, which is kind of quite scary.
Agyness Deyn
For me, being onstage for an hour and a half, my confidence was really huge for me. Doing eight shows a week for a run, I was like: I'm actually doing this. And now I feel more confident going into something.
Agyness Deyn
You know, even though I'm in fashion, I don't, like, do fashion. Fashion isn't me, even though I work in it. It's just materialistic stuff. I just want to do whatever makes me happy...Like being totally conscious. Laughing is, like, my favorite thing to do. Being with friends, having fun...being a bit daft.
Agyness Deyn
I know I'm no Whitney Houston.
Agyness Deyn
I don't really see myself as a big supermodel.
Agyness Deyn
I don't expect that because I was successful in one field that I will then get a ride of passage into another.
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
When I first started modelling, as I was walking down the catwalk I just thought, 'Please don't fall over, please don't fall over, please don't fall over!'
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
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
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.
