INSIGHTS: First Person HEAR/SAY By Staff Monday, November 19, 2012 12:00 AM “There has been a change in men’s attitudes toward their clothes. Men are more aware of fashion; they’re not afraid of it.” – Calvin Klein “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 “What you wear is how you present yourself to the world, especially today when human contacts go so fast. Fashion is instant language.” – Miuccia Prada “With time, fashion has become part of my DNA.” – Roberto Cavalli “I think that fashion has become such a big business and with globalization we are on new territory at this point. We are not just designing for a country, we are designing for a world now.” – Anna Sui “I think it is really important to have a sense of business. As a designer, you can get so wrapped up in the design and fashion side that you forget the business side.” – Tommy Hilfiger
