More quotes by Michael Kors
I grew up in a family of people who were obsessed with fashion.
Michael Kors
Ultimately, clean lines have greater longevity, which women appreciate, and to which they can add their own personality
Michael Kors
Every woman should own a shirtdress
Michael Kors
I think to be empathetic is the greatest gift you can have as a designer. Hopefully, people will look at me and say, 'He really loved women.'
Michael Kors
American women often fall into the trap of, Oh, these are my weekend clothes. These are my work clothes. This is what I wear at night. It's so old-fashioned. The French are not afraid of their luxury. Americans can be so puritanical and think, That's my special-occasion bag. Whereas, for a French woman, it's her everyday bag.

My apartment looks like no one lives in it.

The biggest lesson that I've learned is that fashion is this tightrope where you have to be consistent but inconsistent. You need the connective thread but at the same time you need a sense of surprise.
Michael Kors
If you want to have longevity, then I think that you have to have a point of view, but at the same time still be elastic. Things evolve, the world changes, but people have to know you for who you are so they know what you stand for.
Michael Kors
I grew up surrounded by these tough, ballsy, strong women. They were also adoring women, but they were the kind of women who would argue over what kind of pants you were wearing or the color of your nail polish.
Michael Kors
It's funny when I hear people complain - particularly about the most fabulous parts of being a designer, like when you're getting ready to work on a show. I don't even know that I'm tired. I could stay up for six days straight! No drugs, no coffee, no nothing. I'm just so excited.
Michael Kors
Give me Caviar Kaspia and give me a hamburger. I love the two extremes.
Michael Kors
The greenest thing you could do in fashion, is to buy something great that you’re going to use for years
Michael Kors
When you try on something, you have to ask yourself, 'How many ways could I wear this? Could I wear it to work? To dinner or drinks? Will it span the seasons' If you have to think too hard about those questions, then skip it.
Michael Kors
People want to look taller and thinner. No one says, 'Ooh! Let me buy that dress because it makes me feel matronly!'
Michael Kors
You make sexiness strong by balancing it out: something familiar with something unfamiliar, something masculine with something feminine, something streamlined with something rococo. It's a Yin and Yang. Women are made of layers, your mood shifts, no one is neither one extreme nor the other.
Michael Kors
I wasn't Barbie-obsessed. I think my mother might have been my Barbie.
Michael Kors
I feel unbelievably fortunate. How many people get to do what they always wanted to do and do well with it and continue to be surprised and see amazing places and meet amazing people?
Michael Kors
People shouldn't notice what you're wearing before they notice you. You want people to register you first. 'Oh, what a nice jacket' should be an afterthought if you're doing it right.
Michael Kors
Fashion is not like the movie business, where you can have two great projects in a row and then say, You know what? I'm going to take off eight months. What am I going to tell people? Wear last year's clothes?
Michael Kors
People always think that designers hate each other. And we're certainly a competitive lot, but we also enjoy each other's company. No one else knows what you're going through other than another designer.
