Fashion and Style... What Do They Mean?

Do you know what is fashion and what is style? Of course, you know and you can explain these two words. I know them as well, but it was very interesting for me to know what fashion creators think about fashion and style. I'm sure they know more about them than we do, and I've collected some of their quotes here. I think they will help us to understand this world of fashion from the inside. Some of their thoughts are very interesting and new to me. I hope you will enjoy them as well:)
