• A company has to be like that person who turns his cuffs up a different way, who smokes a certain brand of cigarette, who wears an obscure vintage watch. – Andy Spade • A wife says to her husband (or vice versa), “Do you love me?””Of course,” he replies. “I’ve been married to you for twenty years, haven’t I?”How satisfied would we be if we presented someone with a vintage wine and, upon asking his opinion of it, he replied, “I’m drinking it, aren’t I?”Love still needs expression between those who share it. – Leo Buscaglia • About 90 percent of the pieces in my home are vintage, and I’m a ruthless editor. I only live with things that I love. There is not one thing in my home that doesn’t have meaning to me. – Nate Berkus • After moving to New York, I started to love vintage shopping. – Mark Indelicato • All is finite in the present; and even that finite is infinite in it velocity of flight towards death. But in God there is nothing finite…Upon a night of earthquake he builds a thousand years of pleasant habitations for man. Upon the sorrow of an infant he raises oftentimes from human intellects glorious vintages that could not else have been. – Thomas de Quincey • All it takes is to pick up that one piece of trash you pass everyday on your way to work. Or to turn the water faucet off when you’re brushing your teeth from afar. Or to compost. Or to buy 100 percent post-consumer recycled paper. Or to utilize vintage stores and secondhand markets. Or to fully devote yourself to only buying vegetables from local sources. It is remarkably easy to incorporate sustainable choices into our everyday, busy lives. – Shailene Woodley • All my favorite establishments were either overly crowded or pathetically empty. People either sipped fine vintages in celebration or gulped intoxicants of who cares what kind, drowning themselves in a lack of moderation, raising a glass to lower inhibitions, imbibing spirits to raise their own. – Monique Truong • And out of the blue, I got a call from an editor friend at Knopf and she said that they were interested in putting out an update for their vintage paperback line. So I was more than thrilled and it was suggested that perhaps I could do a 1,000 word new introduction covering what’s happened with the whole Warhol thing since 1990 when the first edition hardcover came out and, uh, that was about August 1st and I sat down at my computer here in East Hampton and on on August 30th I’d written almost 10,000 words! – Bob Colacello • As for a signature accessory, I believe in something totally unique that I love and is very personal. It could be a fab pair of vintage earrings I picked up on my travels or a beautiful brightly colored hat or heels, or a fun clutch or handbag. Truthfully, though, the ultimate accessory is a big smile and positive energy! – Rosie Huntington-Whiteley • At Carnegie Hall the Preservation Hall Jazz Band showed how easily it could hop from era to era. It could work like a rhythm-and-blues horn section or a tightly arranged little big band if need be, but it could also switch back into the polyphonic glories of vintage New Orleans jazz, in which nearly every instrument seems to improvise around the tune at the same time. – Jon Pareles

The Mr. Clean Magic Eraser has so many uses, so it’s my secret cleaning tool for keeping my shoes – like the vintage Air Jordan’s I am obsessing over now – and my clients’ shoes, scuff and dirt free. – Brad Goreski • Being vintage like a fine wine Should make you proud of being old And being mature like a cheese Certainly explains the mould! Fester on undaunted into your 7th decade – John Walter Bratton • Better one bite at forty, of truths bitter rind, than the hot wine that gushed from the vintage of twenty. – James Russell Lowell • But some of us are beginning to pull well away, in our irritation, from…the exquisite tasters, the vintage snobs, the three-star Michelin gourmets. There is, we feel, a decent area somewhere between boiled carrots and Beluga caviare, sour plonk and Chateau Lafitte, where we can take care of our gullets and bellies without worshipping them. – J. B. Priestley • Chanel lambskin, vintage Vanson I’m on the bike doing wheelies in a mansion – Nicki Minaj • Clothes are my drug. I love Camden market – I have so many vintage pieces from there it’s unbelievable. Clothes are really important to me, they give me that feeling of happiness. I love being a bit free with it all and not giving myself rules. – Kaya Scodelario • Consider the trivial but revealing hallmarks of urban hipsterdom: faux vintage photography, the handlebar mustache, and vinyl record players all hark back to an earlier time when people were still optimistic about the future. If everything worth doing has already been done, you may as well feign an allergy to achievement and become a barista. – Peter Thiel • Espresso consumption is an aesthetic experience,like tasting a vintage wine or admiring a painting. – Andrea Illy • Everything can draw inspiration: a vintage cloth, a book, a street-when I was in Japan, I was deeply inspired by Japanese pharmacies. – Renzo Rosso • Everything I buy is vintage and smells funny. Maybe that’s why I don’t have a boyfriend. – Lucy Liu • Everything I commission – whether it is for me or for a client’s home or for a hotel or office – is absolutely unique to that job. I have everything made, or I find vintage and antique pieces at markets and auctions. – Kelly Wearstler • Everything I do is unfabulous. Im the most normal person. I love walking everywhere, and going to hole-in-the-wall places, like nail shops, because they do the best job. And I go to vintage stores rather than high-end boutiques, because I like to dress different from other people. – Ashley Benson • Everything kind of was leading towards that and I had so many specific ideas always about how exactly I wanted something to look. I would customize so many things in my wardrobe that were vintage or things that I was buying, and it just really all aligned and the timing was perfect. – Rumi Neely • Everything was just so spot on and character-building for me in terms of creating Celia [Bryant]. The ability to get to wear all these vintage pieces and immerse yourself in that world and get to wear all these amazing hats. And the shoes! – Lily Collins • For clothes, I like Dover Street Market and Acne. For vintage, I go to Mint just off Seven Dials. For shoes, it’s Church’s and Russell & Bromley. – Matt Smith • For my own style, I love vintage. 60’s and 70’s are my favorite. I love baby doll dresses and the soft colors.

At my school we wear a uniform, but we have one day a week we can wear whatever we want. – Elle Fanning • Fortunately I own a vintage brain, and I am alive and well in the 21st century, still making records, still working at an intense pace and most of all, still having fun doing it. – Tony Visconti • Guitars are kind of just, you know, sexy, especially old vintage ones. – Andrew Bird • Happiness is a wine of the rarest vintage, and seems insipid to a vulgar taste. – Logan Pearsall Smith • He gave me a look of great contempt; as I supposed, for venturing, even by implication, to draw a parallel between a lack of affluence that might, literally, affect my purchase of rare vintages, and a figure of speech intended delicately to convey his own dire want for the bare necessities of life. He remained silent for several seconds, as if trying to make up his mind whether he could ever bring himself to speak to me again; and then said gruffly: ‘I’ve got to go now.’ – Anthony Powell • How ironic that returning to a raw and ancient form of worship is now seen as new and even cutting edge. We are simply going back to a vintage form of worship which has been around for as long as the church has been in existence. – Dan Kimball • I adore vintage clothes. When I go on the road doing auditions for So You Think You Can Dance, I always research the cities we’re traveling to so I know where all the best vintage stores are. There are several stores and flea markets I love here in LA. Shareen is amazing with the best edit in town! Golyester is great. I really enjoy the Rose Bowl market. A word of warning: wear layers, comfortable shoes, be prepared to hunt, and fuel yourself with a bucket of cappuccino! Enjoy! – Cat Deeley • I always carry a good lipstick with me, like MAC in Ruby Woo. It has a matt finish, the essence of that vintage glamour look. – Paloma Faith • I always had a sense that clothes, be it uniform or vintage, could help to create a character. – Collier Schorr • I always have Aquaphor which is just for like chapped lips, especially in the wintertime when you’re traveling a lot. That’s just the worst combination of things. And always a really good pair of jeans. Something vintage-y, a little loose and boyfriend-y, but not over the top. They’re just comfortable but could still be dressed up or down. – Emily Ratajkowski • I always recommend rewiring vintage lighting. It’s not a bargain if your house burns down. – Lara Spencer • I am a huge comic book fan, and I love everything vintage: cars, movies, music, art, and style – especially the 1950s style. – Mateus Ward • I am grateful for what I call well-spent moments: Making a tuna fish sandwich with the works. Taking at least a half hour to eat it outside. Ironing my vintage tea towels while watching old black-and-white film noir movies and sipping one martini with extra olives – a quirky combination, but it works. – Sarah Ban Breathnach • I am more vintage than I am high fashion. – Katerina Graham • I am not a designer that buys vintage to be inspired. – Olivier Theyskens • I am the woman with the cool vintage glasses… I am the proud wife beside her husband… I am the writer who has written a new novel. – Ann Hood • I am vegetarian, so I don’t have clothes, shoes or bags made from leather or suede or any animal products.

I would mix those pieces into some of the more inexpensive items from Express, Gap, Old Navy, and Clothestime. – Katy Perry • I do a lot of vintage shopping. I love going to second-hand stores. – Victoria Justice • I do a lot of vintage, of course, but I really feel so particular about clothing. I think it stems from acting, like if I’m not wearing the proper shoes for a character I feel totally off. – Morgan Saylor • I do take a computer to do some processing live and I might use a couple of plug-in synthesisers, ’cause obviously you can take quite a lot of power in terms of sound generation on a computer that I can trigger from a couple of keyboards. And it means I don’t have to take some of my vintage stuff and have it trashed by various airlines which has happened in the past. But I still take some vintage stuff with me, I’ll take that risk because I like using all that stuff. – Thighpaulsandra • I don’t at all want to resemble some of these young designers who ask hallucinating prices for rags that are so in fashion now, that six months later, they are old-fashioned! I love vintage boutiques, I love to customize my clothes. And then, with my friends, we regularly exchange togs. – Milla Jovovich • I don’t come from a wealthy or privileged background, and growing up I was always looking for the best quality at a price I could afford. My love of vintage is rooted in that. Drugstores were the mecca for the latest makeup trends and products. – Eva Mendes • I don’t get what’s happening to Jose Mourinho of late. He’s lapsing into the kind of Portuguese moroseness you get from staring at the Atlantic horizon and imagining you’re the last place in the world, while listening to endless renditions of the fado. His latest line about ‘everyone hates us and we don’t care’ sounds like vintage Joe Kinnear in the great days of the Wimbledon Crazy Gang. – Peter Chapman • I don’t know what the average income of Muslim-Americans is, but Muslim-American immigrants of recent vintage, I bet they have a very above-average representation in professional and business occupations. – Thomas Friedman • I don’t like new cars; I’m into vintage cars – there’s a Jaguar E-Type in the ‘Goldie’ video. – ASAP Rocky • I don’t like the idea of things being off-limits to kids – like a fancy sitting room where they can’t touch anything. I own vintage pottery cups, and I let my girls hold them. It teaches them to treat objects with respect. – Debi Mazar • I don’t really know much about the fashion world. I have a few stylist friends that help me find stuff. So they know all about the vintage fashion world; I just kind of describe to them what I want and they find a lot of it for me. – BØRNS • I don’t think fashion has to change every five minutes. I’d like these to be clothes you can wear for a long time – ten, 20 years; pass on to your daughter. Why buy vintage when you can open your own closet! – Tom Ford • I emcee how I feel for the moment. I’ll always be influenced by Tribe, but my EP and LP have a lot of different flavors! I’ll keep it vintage Tribe if Tribe decides to do another LP… which, in my heart, I’d love to do for the fans. – Phife Dawg • I find my dress sense tends to be a bit of a mixture between high fashion and unique vintage pieces with a little bit of street trends. For example, I might find a really nice, suede dinner jacket that I’d wear with a basic plain white shirt and some chinos and a pair of Nike trainers. – Tinie Tempah • I get my inspiration from books, pictures, art. I might find a vintage scarf and say, “I think this should be our color palette.” – Jessica Simpson • I got a job as soon as I could – 11 or 12. I started babysitting and then I got a part-time job at a pharmacy in England. I just remember loving the feeling of going out and buying my own clothes! I’d go bargain-hunting and get secondhand vintage stuff. – Natasha Bedingfield • I grew up in Texas, and people love their American-made muscle cars there. I grew up around people who loved cars and took care of cars and my dad’s a big car nut, so I learned a little bit about cars – how to love them, most importantly. I think that from the time I could remember, I’ve always envisioned myself in a vintage muscle car. – Amber Heard • I had this story from one who had no business to tell it to me, or to any other. I may credit the seductive influence of an old vintage upon the narrator for the beginning of it, and my own skeptical incredulity during the days that followed for the balance of the strange tale. – Edgar Rice Burroughs • I have a lot of guitars. Yeah, I’m not like a guitar collector, I don’t have all vintage instruments. I don’t even own a Strat or Les Paul. I don’t have one. – John Petrucci • I have eclectic taste, and I love vintage style mixed with glamour and old world charm. – Sonam Kapoor • I have this threadbare caftan from the ’60s that I got at a vintage store years ago – it’s basically a muumuu. My friends are astonished that I wear it, but I love it. It’s this light fabric that just moves with me. – Gabrielle Anwar • I have this vintage Harley-Davidson motorcycle jacket. When I put it on, it has this supercool feeling to it. – Alicia Keys • I have two vintage typewriters. One just about works and the other hasn’t a hope in hell, bless it.

I have far too many vintage dresses. – Karen Elson • I just think you would never kill and cut up a human to wear so why do it to animals? I just think it’s horrible, I would never wear fur, although I guess if it was a really vintage piece you might just get away with it. – Kelly Osbourne • I like a little bit of designer, with a bit of vintage and high street mixed in. I love it when you find those one-off key pieces, which end up becoming investment pieces. – Cara Delevingne • I like fashion because it’s sort of my job, so I’m into it when I have to be. But when I’m not working, I wear jeans and T-shirts.

I go through a vintage store and find things that I feel like I fit right into them because of all the years that they’ve been used. – Channing Tatum • I like What Goes Around Comes Around for old concert tees. Oh man, I got this ‘Sgt. Pepper’ cartoon Beatles shirt there; it was, like, $300. I didn’t even know how much it cost – I thought it was gonna be, like, $80 at most – till I got to the register and was like, ‘Oh mah gawd!’ Good Lord. But it’s classic vintage rock, you know? – Kid Cudi • I live in a beautiful vintage building that was built in the heart of downtown Chicago. – Nate Berkus • I love Ali MacGraw and her style – I’m into vintage ’70s outfits at the moment. – Kim Kardashian • I love all vintage-everything, really. I love fashion. I’ve always loved it. And the fifties, I’ve always loved. – Elle Fanning • I love anything vintage. And I love Marc Jacobs and shoes by Giuseppe Zanotti. – Meagan Good • I love Fall Fashion Week because it means lots of layering, long sweaters and vintage coats. – Rachel Zoe • I love fashion! I love clothes! I really like vintage clothes, so in my closet there’s a lot of ’50s stuff. I go to the stores and shop around. – Elle Fanning • I love handbags. And shoes. Investing in like a great handbag or a pair of shoes can really make or break an outfit. It’s fun to mix and match high street with luxury brands and throw in a bit of vintage as well. – Miranda Kerr • I love hats! I collect vintage ones – I find them at antique shops in Kansas. – Lindsey Wixson • I love history. Everything is inspired by history, so that’s why I love vintage and antiques. – Kelly Wearstler • I love old, vintage cars. I’ve got a 1936 Dodge Touring Sedan right now and there’s only five of them registered in the world, and I absolutely love working on it. It’s gorgeous. – Danny Trejo • I love playing around with vintage fabrics and lace. – Helena Christensen • I love things that have a vintage feel to them, just because there’s a certain texture to them that we just don’t have anymore. In fact I think I’ve been stuck in the 50s or 60s for a while… – Amber Heard • I love to find a great vintage secondhand shop. – Bridget Hall • I love to shop vintage clothes; in London, I usually go to Relic and Alfie’s Market. I usually brunch around London Bridge, where I live.- Georgia May Jagger • I love vintage and I shop vintage a lot because it’s just such great value for money. – Lianne La Havas • I love vintage and prints. – Georgina Chapman • I love vintage cars because you can do so much more to them.- T-Pain • I love vintage clothes. I have a real passion which probably comes from the days of my mum who had this great dress up box that she put all her clothes from the 60s and 70s in – platform shoes and jumpsuits and boots. – Rachel McAdams • I love vintage shopping in flea markets, vintage stores and even Ebay. – Chelsea Leyland • I love vintage shopping, I think it’s really fun. And I love the feeling of finding the most amazing piece for less. – Emma Roberts • I love vintage, but it’s so expensive now. – Alexandra Roach • I mean, Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, I think the young kids sell lot of records. But for an older kind of artist, more of a sort of heritage, vintage type of artist, you have to think outside the box. – Boy George • I really like the bohemian look, and I’m a great fan of mixing vintage and modern. – Kierston Wareing • I really love beautiful, well-made clothes. I don’t shop [a lot], so I tend to have pieces for a long time. I like mixing vintage with newer designers. – Sarah Jessica Parker • I shop at a lot of vintage stores because the prices are amazing, and I love the idea that there’s a history behind the piece I’m wearing. – Gabrielle Anwar • I shop only at thrift stores and vintage stores. In New York, I like a place called Star Struck, and a place called The Family Jewels. – Ezra Miller • I spent my first paycheck on a vintage Mercedes. – Jennifer Aniston • I started getting back into buying old analog gear while we were recording. Lots of old drum machines and synths. It wasn’t a conscious thing. I didn’t consider myself a collector, but boxes of vintage gear would turn up virtually every day. – Martin Gore • I started making movies in my late 20s, that time in an artist’s career that often sees artists just imitating things that he or she loves. I just wanted to be great like L’Age d’Or vintage Buñuel. I wanted to be Busby Berkeley, for crying out loud! I wanted to have chorus girls stomping their heels in my casting office. I wanted to be Erich Von Stroheim monogramming underwear for extras. So I started off my career doing that, and that was fun, but I realised I wasn’t very good at it. – Guy Maddin • I think my mum was really very ahead of her time. She wore very little makeup. She really explored the way that she wore clothes in a very honest way. She wore a lot of vintage stuff and mixed it with bespoke men’s tailoring and things like that. That was a huge influence on me, seeing a woman in the spotlight carry herself in that kind of way. But mostly, for me, it was just that she was an incredibly honest and sort of natural person. – Stella McCartney • I used to collect vintage clothing – exquisite lace dresses, embroidered shawls and ornate jewelry – but that’s just not me any more. – Britt Ekland • I was a Knicks fan of the Kenny Sears-Carl Braun-Jim Baechtold vintage. I was even their ball boy when I was a teenager. – Marv Albert • I was always involved in low level motor clubs, competitions and with the Vintage Auto Association, and I believe this really helped me on my way. – Liz Halliday • I was collecting Barbies. I know… embarrassing. I sold them all on eBay, and traded them for vintage dishes. So I’ve collected two things. – Kristin Bauer van Straten • I was in a vintage pub rock band called Clover in the 1970s. – Huey Lewis • I was once in a long relationship with a man who ran a vintage clothes store but had been a chef, so I’d come home each night to a different three-course meal. I was quite fat, but so happy.- Paloma Faith • I was watching a collection of vintage ’80s cereal commercials when I paused to wonder why cereal manufacturers no longer included toy prizes inside every box. It was a tragedy, in my opinion. Another sign that civilization was going straight down the tubes. – Ernest Cline • I was working at eBay, so I would just troll the vintage categories, find old amps and what have you. I was buying a fair amount of stuff and playing with it and then selling it back. – Bill Orcutt • I wear a lot of different jewellery. I love to look for it when Im abroad or if I find a great antique or vintage shop. – Lily Donaldson • I wear everything from hip-hop baggy pants to beautiful Armani dresses. I also like to mix vintage clothing with designer pieces. – Julia Stiles • I wore a lot of vintage clothing. I dressed like a reporter, with a little card in my hat. I had these fantasies of who I wanted to be, so I’d dress like an explorer, a cowboy. I dressed up like Elton John a lot too. That was another period. – Illeana Douglas • I wore the Marc Jacobs dress, so I love Marc Jacobs. He has a vintage flair. But I’ve always worn a lot of vintage stuff, so it hasn’t been a lot of designers. If I see something that I like, I just buy it. – Elle Fanning • I’ve been enjoying a couple of post-Oscar burgers. So I didn’t fit into a lot of the vintage stuff. I wanted to wear something that was a little bit more forgiving. – Anne Hathaway • If I have an hour in a city, I go to vintage stores first because it’s so much cooler to find a piece that is unique. I love the thought of some girl having worn it before and living her life in it. – Helena Christensen • If the October days were a cordial like the sub-acids of fruit, these are a tonic like the wine of iron. Drink deep or be careful how you taste this December vintage. The first sip may chill, but a full draught warms and invigorates. – John Burroughs • If you care about this country, if you want to take part in a citizen’s movement that helps heal the deep racial, economic, and cultural divides tearing us apart, you must read Eric Deggans’ Race-Baiter. No book of recent vintage so thoroughly dissects the media’s monetized appetite for division. Provocative, honest, and smart, Race-Baiter is a supremely important book. Read it and let the conversation begin. – Connie May Fowler • I’m a real Londoner. We have very grey weather in London, and I think it encourages a very eclectic and crazy fashion sense. I mix high-street stuff with more high-end fashion and vintage. – Emma Watson • I’m big on reworking vintage. Also, buying one great piece that lasts forever – to me, that is total sustainability. – Elizabeth Rogers • I’m definitely a vintage collector. I have a wardrobe of core basics that I like to spice up with different colors, new accessories, and I love to try on new things to invite something different. I find, with every new stage of my life, my self-image shifts with new duties and responsibilities, and so does my fashion style. – Camila Alves • I’m definitely an anomaly, but I’m making things. They’re selling, say, martinis, and I’m kind of making vintage Riesling. People aren’t going to sit there very often, not your average public, and your average music-business monster is not going to take the time to notice the overtones and the undertones inside the flavor. They’d rather just have the martini. – Ben Folds • I’m doing a fun EP. It’s called ‘Songs in the Key of Phife: Eight Is Enough.’ It’s radio-friendly, but then a lot of it just has that raw hip-hop. Some of it will be vintage Tribe, but for the most part I’m just letting my voice be heard. – Phife Dawg • I’m into classic games like Donkey Kong, and also collect vintage tour t-shirts – everything from Olivia Newton-John to Duran Duran. I’ve got a Chicago one worth $100. – Michael Rosenbaum • I’m not a big shopper. I’m very very picky about what it is that I buy, I prefer to buy vintage and then I prefer to be very selective. – Jaime King • I’m not a vintage/thrift shop girl. I don’t have the patience. – Robin Givhan • I’m not going to try to be too young because at the end of the day, I’m not 20 anymore. I don’t want to sound corny or look corny doing young things. All the stuff that the kids are doing, that’s not my place. I believe that everyone followed me back then, they’re still here. That’s who I’m trying to talk to and relate to. All the trap music and all of that, it’s great but I can’t do that. I’m going to stay vintage Ginuwine and stay at the place that got me here. That’s what people want. – Ginuwine • I’m not the kind of guy who deserves to play a vintage guitar because I’m too rough on instruments. – Tommy Shaw • I’m shocked at how much I’m into Christmas pillows. There’s cheesiness, obviously, but then there’s really cute ones that are metallic that say “Ho Ho Ho” or “Merry” or cute vintage needlepoint ones. – Emily Henderson • In spite of all the skills that I do have, to relate to the normal world I have no applicable skills. I can speak Russian, I can speak French. I know about Chanel. Especially vintage Chanel. I know what Halston is. All of these things, but they can’t really be applied to a nine-to-five. – Johnny Weir • In the souls of the people the grapes of wrath are filling and growing heavy, growing heavy for the vintage. – John Steinbeck • It is easily overlooked that what is now called vintage was once brand new.- Tony Visconti • It’s a mission for me to make sure that philanthropy doesn’t feel like a vintage hand-me-down from mom or dad. I want people to feel compelled to do something positive because they just love it, they’re excited about it, and it’s cool. – Usher • It’s so cliche to say florals for spring. I really like a vintage-like dress that’s floral. You can belt it; I like belts. I like wearing pretty dresses that are really comfortable, that you can spend the day in but also feel girly. – Brittany Snow • I’ve always loved fashion so much and I didn’t have access to the kind of fashion I really wanted, so I would do vintage shopping. – Rachel Roy • I’ve always loved vintage and I never like to have something someone else has. – Jillian Hervey • I’ve come to see our central nervous system as a kind of vintage switchboard, all thick foam wires and old-fashioned plugs. The circuitry isn’t properly equipped; after a surplus of emotional information the system overloads, the circuit breaks, the board runs dark. That’s what shock is. – Darin Strauss • I’ve making videos since I was seventeen I was originally discollecting vintage hmmm… footages from different archives and setting moving pictures to classical music clips that meant a lot to me. Maybe there were places I have been where nice things have happened. I had a vision of making my life a work of art and I was looking for people who also felt that way. – Lana Del Rey • I’ve never really been interested in the vintage photos people pay lots of money for — civil war tintypes or old daguerrotypes of famous people. Nor do I have any interest in the really gross, dark stuff that some people pay top-dollar, like post-mortem photos of babies (yuck) or press photos of old murder scenes or whatever. I collect in these little niches most other people don’t care about — dark-and-weird-but-fun — and photos that have been written on, which a lot of sellers think hurts their value. All of which is good news for me! – Ransom Riggs • Kit Kittredge was an amazing experience because I got to go to Canada, and it was my first era film, so I got to wear the 1930s clothes, the real vintage clothes. – Madison Davenport • 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 • Ladies, apologies, but isn’t ‘vintage’ just used stuff? – Bob Saget • Men should be judged not by their tint of skin, the gods they serve, the vintage they drink, nor by the way they fight, or love, or sin, but by the quality of the thought they think. – Adela Florence Nicolson • Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord: / He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored. – Julia Ward Howe • Most of my wardrobe is vintage, and I’ve worn dresses to the Oscars that I got for $10. – Winona Ryder • My advice to new artists is to embrace a broader concept of timelessness than vintage or retro. – Brandi Carlile • My grandparents in Istria had a frasca, which is about the most basic kind of grocery/restaurant. They sold wine from their own vineyard. I took control of the vineyard, hired a local winemaker, and bought another winery in 1996. We had our first commercial vintage in 1998. – Joe Bastianich • My home has a split personality. Some of the rooms are very French antique. Think Aubusson rugs, turquoise ceramic jugs, sandbag pillows, and broken birdcages. The other half is very Aztec. Neon ikat fabric pillows, vintage books piled up to the ceiling, and shutters from Bali. – Poppy Delevingne • My mom passed on her obsession of all things antique or vintage. I love to go thrift store shopping or explore any sort of garage sale. Treasure hunting is a family passion. – Zoey Deutch • My most cherished possessions are my grandma’s letters and my vintage Martha Washington cookbook. – Sandra Lee • My old vintage designs are so popular now. I must have been on to something. – Pierre Cardin • My style is quite clean, vintage, and almost French in a way. – India de Beaufort • My vintage Levi’s are my favorite on the show, ’cause they really fit. – Laura Prepon • My wife bought me a vintage Gibson guitar that isn’t just beautiful but has tremendous sentimental value. I have plenty of guitars for live gigs but this is one to treasure. – Bill Bailey • New York vintage is too expensive! – Kirsten Dunst • No amount of vintage dresses gives you dignity – Taylor Swift • No more rules, the freedom of dressing. The beauty of mixing vintage clothes with a pair of jeans that I love. – Yves Saint Laurent • Nothing is more vintage than dying of Rubella. – Stephen Colbert • Of course I am grateful, and I’m sure you are, as you put it, a special vintage,” Bill said politely, “But I have my own wine cellar. – Charlaine Harris • Old Americana vintage gangster stuff has a fantastical feel; it feels less dirty in a way. It feels like the opera of crime. – Shia LaBeouf • On the same Australian trip, I brought back a pair [of Ugg] for my then boyfriend who was a photographer. He wore them all the time. He used to wear them with Levis twisted jeans and a vintage T-shirt. This is 2002. They looked great on him. I guess it takes a certain kind of man to pull them off but they have other ones that are less typical of this, I think. – Alexa Chung • Once I graduated from NYU, I started making custom vintage tees for my friends and it just took off from there. – Charlotte Ronson • Our conception of 1950s underwear is a lovely vintage aesthetic, but actually, wearing stockings with no elastic and a girdle was heavy duty. – Romola Garai • Our culture’s obsession with vintage objects has rendered us unable to separate history from nostalgia. People want heart. They want a chaser of emotion with their aesthetics. – Sloane Crosley • Paul Furlong is my vintage Rolls Royce and he cost me nothing. We polish him, look after him, and I have him fine tuned by my mechanics. We take good care of him because we have to drive him every day, not just save him for weddings. – Ian Holloway • Purists behave as if there was a vintage year when language achieved a measure of excellence which we should all strive to maintain. In fact, there was never such a year. The language of Chaucer’s or Shakespeare’s time was no better and no worse than that of our own – just different. – Jean Aitchison • Short boughs, long vintage. – George Herbert • Some things are better than other things: Google, Gmail, my vintage Montgomery Wards socket set (30+ years, still going strong), my Estwing framing hammer, and my Dremel rotary tool. – William Gurstelle • Tabitha was always trying unorthodox ways to set her up with guys. Although, to be fair to her sister, Tabitha didn’t usually knock the guy unconscious before she forced them together. Still, with Tabitha there was a first time for just about anything. And extreme blind-dating was very vintage T. – Sherrilyn Kenyon • The band is like a vintage car. You take it out to go for a spin for a couple miles, but you wouldn’t drive across the country. – Robyn Hitchcock • The best thing I ever bought is a vintage Oscar de la Renta short gingham dress that I wore to my rehearsal dinner the night before my wedding. – Kelly Wearstler • The biggest ones [online stores] I go back to are Amazon.com and eBay.com because it’s great for music and books… I collect vintage vinyl records. – John Varvatos • The C+ amps is vintage at this point, and it definitely has a certain sound to it. I wanted something that was going to keep Dream Theater in more of a current musical landscape, as far as being the producer and producing the type of album I wanted to hear. – John Petrucci • The freedmen were not really free in 1865, nor are most of their descendants really free in 1965. Slavery was but one aspect of a race and color problem that is still far from solution here, or anywhere. In America particularly, the grapes of wrath have not yet yielded all their bitter vintage. – Samuel Eliot Morison • The Humbling is not vintage Roth, despite its compelling premise. The bizarre series of episodes — mostly sexual encounters with women — which make up this short novel don’t play to Roth’s strengths. (…) The Humbling disappoints because it avoids these universal implications, and veers off into a baroque world of the unique and fantastic, never quite deigning to make its world concrete or to give its characters the honour of an independent will. – Philip Hensher • The I-95 bridges were built in the early 1960s and are now more than 50 years old. The same vintage as the I-35 bridge that collapsed in Minnesota back in 2007, killing 13 people and injuring 145. The antiquated Skagit River Bridge in Washington state that collapsed last May after a truck hit one of the trusses was even older. And it’s not just bridges. According to the American Society of Civil Engineers, 32 percent of the major roads in America are now in poor condition and in need of major repairs. – Ed Rendell • The kinds of things I like with crystals are the really beautiful costume jewelry, vintage pieces, and they usually have that diamond shape. – Zoe Kravitz • The minute you think that the past was better, your present is second hand, and yourself becomes vintage – it’s okay for clothes not that great for people – Karl Lagerfeld • The people who run things] are so successful in the way they do it now. They could buy me off with a couple of vintage prints, they could have you do an ad, or give you a ribbon… In capitalist countries they reward artists because we’re ineffectual. – Danny Lyon • The Specials was always going to be an underground, underdog kind of movie. But I love when people bring that up, because it’s very early, vintage James Gunn. – Rob Lowe • There are so many cute vintage dresses made out of synthetics from the ’60s and ’70s – but they’re so itchy and hot. It’s not worth it! – Zooey Deschanel • There is a phenomenal amount of pressure on women in this industry: they are considered vintage by the time they hit their mid-30s. – Tori Amos • There’s a lot of really inspiring music coming around the bend – we tend to believe that to sound classic or timeless is to sound vintage or retro. It’s a little bit dangerous, because you’ll really miss a chance to make your mark as a generation. – Brandi Carlile • There’s a vintage which comes with age and experience. – Jon Bon Jovi • There’s nothing like a string of Xmas lights inside the house to make the whole family feel like they live in a vintage clothing store. – Dana Gould • This is not really currency that circulates. It’s like the old joke about expensive vintage wine. Wine prices will go up and once in a while somebody will buy a 50-year-old bottle of wine and say, “Wait a minute. This has gone bad.” The answer is, “Well, that wine isn’t for drinking; that’s for trading.” These $100 bills aren’t meant to circulate. They’re not to spend on goods and services. They’re a store of value. They’re a form of saving. – Michael Hudson • Time and again I hear how important the darker environment is to those at our vintage-faith worship gathering. Attenders feel they can freely pray in a corner by themselves without feeling that everyone is staring at them. – Dan Kimball • To ‘choose’ dogma and faith over doubt and experience is to throw out the ripening vintage and to reach greedily for the Kool-Aid. – Christopher Hitchens • Vintage books, old china, antiques; maybe I love old things so much because I feel impermanent myself. – Josh Lanyon • Vintage was brilliant! – Gavin Turk • Virginia Madsen big part in that movie [‘Class’] required her shirt to get ripped off, and looking back, it couldn’t be a more egregious, vintage, lowbrow, 1980s Porky’s-esque, shoehorned-in moment. Like, you would never have that moment in a movie that aspired to be what that movie did today. – Rob Lowe • We always need to have a smart black blazer in our closets. It’s just a nice clean way to dress up even something as simple as jeans and a t-shirt. And something I always have in my closet, I always have a vintage headscarf with me, to tie around my bag or protect my hair from the sun, it depends but I always find a use for it. – Nicole Richie • We are born at a given moment, in a given place and, like vintage years of wine, we have the qualities of the year and of the season of which we are born. Astrology does not lay claim to anything more. – Carl Jung • When I look at asset prices; real estate, bonds, equities, vintage cars… I think that gold is actually one of the few assets that is relatively cheap, relatively inexpensive. – Marc Faber • When it comes to wine, I tell people to throw away the vintage charts and invest in a corkscrew. The best way to learn about wine is the drinking. – Alexis Lichine • When the choice is between a demanding relationship and a vintage pickup truck, I’ll choose the truck every time. – Amy Dickinson • When you buy a piece of vintage clothing you’re not just buying the fabric and thread – you’re buying a piece of someone’s past – Isabel Wolff • While conversion of sugars to ethanol is the predominant reaction, it is only one of potentially thousands of biochemical reactions taking place during fermentation. As a result, wine contains trace amounts of a large number of organic acids, esters, sugars, alcohols, and other molecules. Wine is, in fact, one of the most complex of all beverages: the fruit of a soil, climate, and vintage, digested by a fungus through a process guided by the culture, vision, and skill of an individual man or woman. – Neel Burton • While in a vintage restaurant…”the past isn’t quaint while you’re in it. Only at a safe distance, later, when you see it as decor, not as the shape your life’s been squeezed into. – Margaret Atwood • Wine is one of the most complex of all beverages: the fruit of a soil, climate, and vintage, digested by a fungus through a process guided by the culture, vision, and skill of an individual man or woman. – Neel Burton • Wine to me is something that brings people together. Wine does promote conversation and promote civility, but it’s also fascinating. It’s the greatest subject to study. No matter how much you learn, every vintage is going to come at you with different factors that make you have to think again. – Robert M. Parker, Jr. • Women can explore so much in dressing. But if I was a guy I would wear vintage suits constantly. With crazy ties! – Helena Christensen • Yeah, okay. You’re right. I was having dinner with Zombie Carl the other night. You know, steak, rare, and a bottle of vintage type A. He told me all his secrets, but too bad for you I promised him I wouldn’t tell. In exchange I asked him to gather his best undead buddies and stalk me through my friend’s yard. And oh, yeah, it was totally fine if they wanted to use me as an all-night-dinner buffet, because having organs is SO last year. – Gena Showalter • You deserve to die,” I whisper, suddenly realizing Iv’e said the words aloud. “Excuse me?” “Nothing.” “Not nothing. You just told me that I deserve to be maggot feed.” “Not maggot feed, just-” “Dead!” “Forget it” “I don’t know why I said that. Just daydreaming, I guess.” “Daydreaming about my death?” “Forget it”, I repeat. “Are you sure you aren’t still mad that I wouldn’t let you borrow my vintage fishnet leggings?” “More like I didn’t want to borrow them. – Laurie Faria Stolarz • You don`t have the same reaction to a girl walking around the street today in a nightgown and a vintage coat and sneakers, that you did six years ago. – Marc Jacobs • You may know more about vintage wine than the wine steward, but if you’re smart you’ll let your man do the choosing and be ecstatic over his selection, even if it tastes like shampoo. – Arlene Dahl • Your birthday is the vintage of your wine; the mark that warns you of your future. – Aesop • You’re drinking vintage Elvis Presley wine. – Elvis Costello

Claesson Koivisto Rune

Claesson Koivisto Rune. Oficina de diseño y arquitectura multidisciplinar.

Claesson Koivisto Rune es una oficina sueca de diseño y arquitectura multidisciplinaria con sede en Estocolmo (Suecia).

Fue fundada en el año 1995 por Mårten Claesson, Eero Koivisto y Ola Rune, ex compañeros de clase de la Konstfack, o Universidad de Artes, Artesanías y Diseño de Estocolmo.

Mårten Claesson (1970, Lidingö, Suecia) es arquitecto y diseñador. Después de estudiar en el Vasa Technical College de Estocolmo, en el departamento de Ingeniería de la Construcción, y en la Parsons School of Design College de Nueva York, en los departamentos de Arquitectura y Diseño de Productos, se graduó en 1994 con un grado de MFA por la Universidad de Konstfack, de Artes, Artesanías y Diseño de Estocolmo.

Mårten Claesson es también escritor y profesor de arquitectura y diseño. Para él, el diseño es… “la profesión más antigua de la humanidad“.

Eero Koivisto (1958, Suecia) es arquitecto y diseñador. Estudió en la Escuela de Arte y Diseño de la Universidad de Aalto en Helsinki, en la Parsons School of Design College en New York y en la Universidad de Konstfack, de Artes, Artesanías y Diseño de Estocolmo,

Ola Rune (1963, Suecia), es arquitecto y diseñador. Estudió en la Real Academia Danesa de Bellas Artes en Copenhague, en el Southwark College de Arte y Diseño de Londres, y en la Universidad de Konstfack de Artes, Artesanías y Diseño en Estocolmo.

Su trabajo fin de carrera, una vivienda japonesa situada en la plaza más céntrica de Estocolmo, impactó al mundo del diseño generando una gran espectación tanto en Suecia como en el extranjero.

Claesson Koivisto Rune comenzó como una empresa de arquitectura, pero con el tiempo se ha convertido en una oficina multidisciplinar muy valorada internacionalmente y que se ha ramificado en todos los aspectos del diseño, con su interés puesto por igual tanto en la arquitectura como en el diseño.

“Al ser diseñadores y arquitectos al mismo tiempo, tendemos a considerar el diseño como parte de un contexto espacial mayor. Este enfoque multidisciplinario es típico de la tradición escandinava y añade inspiración cruzada a nuestro trabajo, tanto en la pequeña como en la de mayor escala“.

Las categorías de sus proyectos incluyen desde joyas hasta cepillos de dientes y hoteles, grandes edificios, casas particulares, tiendas, oficinas, exposiciones, cocinas, artículos sanitarios, vajilla, cristalería, muebles, textiles, azulejos, iluminación, electrónica, dulces e incluso un trofeo.

Para Eero Koivisto: “El mobiliario es parte de una habitación. No son objetos aislados y deben ejemplificar un contexto“.

Claesson Koivisto Rune realiza diseños orgánicos y ascéticos, en todas las escalas posibles, que se reducen y esquematizan a su forma más simple.

Esto no les impide también privilegiar las formas irregulares y los tonos brillantes en impresiones digitales para crear un diseño innovador que vincula los objetos con su entorno.

Aunque minimalistas no tienen unas pautas claras marcadas de manera inamovible y, trabajando en la más pura tradición escandinava –Arne Jacobsen, Alvar Aalto…- están igualmente inspirados por los principios clásicos de la arquitectura del maestro veneciano del renacimiento Andrea Palladio que por las esculturas minimalistas del artista estadounidense Donald Judd.

“Lo que vale la pena señalar sobre los diseñadores escandinavos de los años 50 y 60 es el fuerte vínculo entre la arquitectura y el diseño. En ese sentido tratamos de hacer lo mismo. El diseño hoy es internacional. Tal vez más que nunca, y resuena en todo el mundo. Hoy en día la escena escandinava de diseño está llena de impulso, llena de talento. Esperemos que esto pueda inspirar a otros diseñadores en otros lugares“.

Claesson Koivisto Rune combinan la forma y la función de raíces nórdicas, mientras se esfuerzan por ser atemporales y no caer en las tendencias y las modas fugaces.

Para Eero Koivisto “el diseño puede ser serio, divertido, artístico, alegre, ingenioso, ecológico, socialmente consciente, suave, duro o simplemente útil“, pero para él “la función debe ser siempre una parte de la ecuación“.

Su lenguaje arquitectónico ha sido definido por Paola Antonelli (curadora de Diseño en el MoMA de Nueva York) como “el epítome de la estética del nuevo milenio“.

Sus proyectos se extienden a los principales continentes del mundo y sus productos y diseños de muebles han sido producidos en Suecia, Finlandia, Dinamarca, Bélgica, Alemania, Inglaterra, Italia, Estados Unidos y Japón.

Claesson Koivisto Rune ha diseñado para más de ochenta importantes empresas internacionales como Sony; Gucci; Louis Vuitton; Arflex; Asplund; Blueair; Boffi; Capdell; Cappellini; Casamania; David diseño; Dune NY; Fontana Arte; Italesse; Kasthall; Living Divani; Marsotto Edizioni; Modus; Muuto; Offecct; Paola Lenti; Petite Friture; Skandiform; Skultuna; Swedese; Tacchini y Wästberg.

Este trío de arquitectos fue la primera oficina sueca que expuso en la sección internacional de la Bienal de Arquitectura de Venecia en 2004, y también son responsables de proyectos galardonados como la colección de casas Tind Prefab para Fiskarhedenvillan; la villa privada Widlund House en Öland; el edificio de la galería Örsta en Kumla; el edificio Sfera Casa de la Cultura en Kyoto; e interiores como el restaurante gourmet Operakällaren y el Nobis Hotel, ambos en Estocolmo.

Han recibido más de sesenta premios por el diseño arquitectónico y de producto tanto en Suecia como en el extranjero.

Entre ellos fueron seleccionados como diseñadores del año 2007 por la revista sueca Disajn y el sofá “Fantasma” para Offecct fue elegido como“Sofá del Año” por la revista Residencia.

Diseñador del Año 2011 y Mobiliario del Año 2012 por Elle Deco (Suecia); Chicago Athenaeum International Architecture Award; Premio 2011 de Diseño Alemán (Oro y Plata) por la República Federal de Alemania;

Premio Good Design USA; IF Premio de Diseño de Producto; Premio de Diseño Good Japan; el Premio Red Dot Design 2014- siendo la primera oficina en conseguir un Red Dot en cinco categorías de productos diferentes- y el Diseñador del Año y el Mejor asiento 2014 concedido por Elle Décor Italia.

En 2015 Claesson Koivisto Rune recibió el premio de diseño de mobiliario más prestigioso de Escandinavia, el premio Bruno Mathsson 2015.

Hasta la fecha, se han publicado 12 libros centrados únicamente en el trabajo de Claesson Koivisto Rune, y sus obras aparecen en unos 130 libros de diseño y arquitectura.

En 2016 Claesson Koivisto Rune presentó un nuevo concepto de negocio dirigida a los diseñadores emprendedores desarrollando un nuevo modelo de negocio que permite a los diseñadores obtener el 75 por ciento de los ingresos de sus productos, en lugar del cinco por ciento, o menos, que está estandarizado.

Claesson Koivisto Rune lanzó este concepto en la Stockholm Design Week (Semana del Diseño de Estocolmo) junto con una colección de objetos de diseñadores como Nendo, Luca Nichetto y Giulio Cappellini.

“Estamos muy contentos de poder reemplazar el antiguo modelo de compensación con un nuevo concepto“, dijo Mårten Claesson.

Los artículos han sido diseñados para Smaller Objects (que se enfoca en pequeños artículos para el hogar incluyendo almohadas, tazas de café y cuadernos) que es una etiqueta lanzada por Claesson Koivisto Rune en 2015.

En la nueva colección, los diseñadores recibirán –con un concepto inspirado en modelos empresariales de economía compartida como Airbnb o Uber– tres cuartas partes del precio al por mayor de cada artículo vendido.

Los diseñadores que producen artículos para la etiqueta Smaller Objects financiarán la fabricación ellos mismos, mientras que la etiqueta venderá los productos a través de su tienda en línea.

Los productos también estarán disponibles en una pequeña pero creciente red de minoristas especializados, que hasta ahora incluyen Austere en Los Ángeles, Semper en Tokio, Asplund en Estocolmo.

“Esto pone al diseñador en una posición perfecta para asegurar un trato directamente con ese proveedor, cortando cualquier intermediario en el proceso. Lo que no tienen, sin embargo, es un medio para vender estos diseños y aquí es donde entran los objetos más pequeños“.

Un modelo alternativo es ofrecido por el sitio web holandés Crowdyhouse, que ofrece a los diseñadores una plataforma para recaudar fondos para que puedan auto-producir sus ideas.

“Es una nueva era, exigiendo nuevos modelos de negocio y nuevos métodos de trabajo“, dijo Ola Rune, y donde el diseñador es “como un empresario, activo no sólo en el diseño, sino también en el desarrollo y los procesos de negocio“.

Se trata de vincular el potencial creativo a la capacidad industrial para lograr una unión fructífera.
