If I want to calm down, I'll buy some fabric, get a pattern, shut myself in a room and stay there for days, really happy. And at the end of it, you get a bedspread or some curtains or something to wear - it's lovely.

More quotes by Twiggy
Ageing doesn't mean giving up on style and individuality it doesn't mean abandoning fashion and living in comfy slippers and flannel knickers.
Twiggy
Life is about making choices: you can either spend three quid on a glossy magazine or you can spend it clearing three square metres of minefield and help give people their lives back. As simple as that.
Twiggy
I didn't really know about Marilyn Manson - it's not my sort of music, not exactly the sort of thing I would curl up and listen to!
Twiggy
Knitwear can play a vital part in layering. The simplicity of a lightweight cardigan makes it one of the best ways to layer outfits. I love granddad cardis for winter, worn over a vintage lace shirt, waistcoat and full skirt with slouchy boots.
Twiggy
Wearing a bold print gets harder as you get older. Its safer to stick to subtle prints or block colours. I have always found prints quite tricky. My daughter Carly, who is on the design team at Stella McCartney, is obsessed with them.
Twiggy
You won't often find me in a pair of killer heels: my heel height doesn't rise above two and a half inches, as I would just fall over!
Twiggy
I like to get on with people. I don't go around being nasty, but if someone crosses me, I can be horrible back.
Twiggy
We want to raise the children the parents aren't raising. I think we want to press individuality on people, though that doesn't necessarily mean being like us. But, it doesn't mean that if you come dressed like us that you aren't being yourself.
Twiggy
I’m just mad for San Francisco. It is like London and Paris stacked on top of each other.
Twiggy
I used to be a thing I'm a person now.
Twiggy
Even if your bosoms are your best asset, deep round-neck or scoop-neck Ts can be too revealing. Offset this flash of gorgeousness by covering up your arms with a little cardi that has sleeves to the elbow.
Twiggy
I've never really had a waist. Even when I was at my slimmest, my silhouette was very straight up, straight down. But I have learnt how to give myself a bit of waist by optical illusion. For this, bring on the belts.
Twiggy
I've always loved life, and I've never known what's ahead. I love not knowing what might be round the corner. I love serendipity.
Twiggy
Sometimes I can't believe I'm going to be 60. I always say there's no point moaning about getting older, when there's nothing you can do about it. But still, I do find it quite funny. I look at that number, 60, and I think, really? Me?
Twiggy
I have an iPod, but I do still love CDs. There's something nice and tangible about a CD. I'm a mixture of old and new - I love my sewing machine, but I've also embraced new technology. The iPad is what did it for me - it's extraordinary.
Twiggy
I love exercise but I find it boring doing the same thing all the time, so I fluctuate between going to the gym, doing Pilates and taking dance lessons.
Twiggy
The sixties were a time when ordinary people could do extraordinary things . . . !
Twiggy
Always be natural. Putting on airs will make a giggle out of you. Be yourself and if you don't know something say so.
Twiggy
Back in the '60s, there was a car sticker that read, 'Forget Oxfam, Feed Twiggy,' but I ate like a horse.
Twiggy
I've had albums out since the 1970s. I was in a musical, 'The Boy Friend,' directed by Ken Russell, and I was on Broadway in 'My One And Only' with Tommy Tune, so I've always been a singer, but I suppose people think of my modelling more.
