More quotes by Hedi Slimane
David Bowie, for me, was the butchest guy in town. Jagger was like a truck driver.
Hedi Slimane
I love California. It has such a strong contribution to the history of culture, and popular culture. For better and worse, of course. Even the worst can be interesting to some degree sometimes for somebody creative.
Hedi Slimane
Men's fashion has a certain heaviness in the fabrics and construction. But also there is a heaviness in the mentality.
Hedi Slimane
I only like luxury fashion. You have to decide where you stand. I like well-made, authentic clothes, well-crafted tailoring. I also like the dream and fantasy of luxury, the exception and rarity of it. I have no interest at all in fast retail. It is ambiguous.
Hedi Slimane
The framework of men's wear is so narrow, that when you play at the edges you get labeled.
Hedi Slimane
People always want an explanation about everything and I cannot give it to them. Because I don't know myself. 'Why did you do a pair of pants like that?' I have no idea. I'm not going to have a 20-minute political discussion about the necessity for slashed, painted leather jeans. Basically, I don't know more than you.
Hedi Slimane
In the future, fast-fashion retailers might change their philosophy toward real efforts to create a world of their own. One can only hope.

I discovered Los Angeles in the late 90s. The city was not at its best at the time, but I fell for it right away. There is something almost haunted about it, a vibrant mythology I find rather inspiring.
Hedi Slimane
[It's] not one thing this year, one thing another year.
Hedi Slimane
Mostly the subject of the photograph, which can be anyone really, coming down the street - someone that has no idea. Heroism in photography, just like in a novel, is for everyone.
Hedi Slimane
I'm most interested in that moment when my entire perspective changes, and I have to reconsider everything.
Hedi Slimane
The perfect integrity of The NewYork Times, and its writers, is not precisely 'just silly nonsense,'
Hedi Slimane
I always loved designing, but the context needs to be right, and have a positive perspective.
Hedi Slimane
Fashion somehow, for me, is purely and happily irrational.
Hedi Slimane
The iPad needs to catch up with Flash before I put a hand on it.
Hedi Slimane
I like it to stay very organic, and to remember a personal story behind all my subjects.
Hedi Slimane
I'd like men to think about evolving into something more sophisticated, more seductive. To explore the possibility of an entirely new masculinity.
Hedi Slimane
Hedi was and is still misspelled 'Heidi' and my perception of genders ended up slightly out of focus from an early age.
Hedi Slimane
I shared this idea that fashion starts with a movement, an allure: elusive, defined through perfect proportions.
