A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

设计师

Designer

It's not really like you have a thing like a supermodel anymore. It's more of a word than a real existence. I think, also, looking at it from a designer's point of view, at one point maybe they felt the stars took too much attention away from the clothes.

你不再有超级名模之类的东西了。与其说它是真实存在,不如说它是一个词。我还认为,从设计师的角度来看,他们一度可能觉得明星们把太多的注意力从服装上转移开了。

The letters were universally complimentary, and we designers loved hearing that our games were being enjoyed, but if they weren't sending us a picture of their screens most of those writers would have spent their time playing the game rather than writing letters.

这些信件受到了普遍的好评,而我们这些设计师也喜欢听到人们喜欢我们的游戏,但如果他们不给我们发送他们屏幕上的照片,那么大多数作者将会把时间花在玩游戏而不是写信上。

I am a fashion designer. I'm not an environmentalist. When I get up in the morning, number one I'm a mother and a wife, and number two I design clothes. So the main thing I need to do is create, hopefully, exquisitely beautiful, desirable objects for my customer.

我是一名时装设计师。我不是环保主义者。当我早上起床的时候,首先我是一个母亲和妻子,其次我设计衣服。所以我要做的主要事情就是为我的顾客创造,希望是精致漂亮,令人满意的东西。

I think that we could be more careful about what we're saying to young women in terms of their expectations. It's unrealistic to expect people to always be in designer clothes. Girls growing up deserve more freedom in how they look and how they feel about how they look.

我认为我们应该更谨慎地对待我们对年轻女性的期望。期望人们总是穿着名牌服装是不现实的。女孩在成长过程中应该拥有更多的自由,在她们的外表和她们对自己外表的感觉方面。

The apparent pointlessness of fashion may be just what makes it so strong as a zeitgeist sensor. Even I, a designer, do not know why a certain proportion feels dated or why another one feels exciting at a given moment. I leave that to the cultural historians and theorists.

时尚明显的无意义也许正是它作为时代精神传感器如此强大的原因。即使是我,一个设计师,也不知道为什么一定比例的人觉得过时,或者为什么另一个人在某一特定时刻感到兴奋。我把这个问题留给文化历史学家和理论家。

I'm really into antiques. But really into it because of my father, who got me into them in the first place. He's an interior designer and he's really into going to antique shows and getting up really early on Sundays and driving out to these weird little towns north of Hamilton.

我对古董很感兴趣。但我真的很喜欢,因为我的父亲,是他首先让我爱上了他们。他是一名室内设计师,他非常喜欢看古董展,星期天起得很早,然后开车去汉密尔顿北部那些奇怪的小镇。

I've always worked closely with the designers and whoever's making the costumes. Comfort is the last thing you want on your mind when you're competing. In an ideal situation, you'll have something where you'll put it on and you're fine and you don't have to worry about it at all.

我一直与设计师和服装设计师紧密合作。当你在比赛的时候,你最不想要的就是舒适。在一个理想的情况下,你会有一些东西,你会穿上它,你很好,你根本不用担心它。

Well I think any designer that can understand what people need to be wearing right now is the biggest and best step that you can take. Instead of putting your ego first, you put the buyer first. And I think that that's a really important thing just to know what the consumer is wanting to wear.

嗯,我认为任何一个能理解人们现在需要穿什么的设计师都是你能采取的最大最好的步骤。你不是把自我放在首位,而是把买家放在首位。我认为了解消费者想要穿什么是非常重要的。

There are two kinds of designers: ones who are very happy locked in their office surrounded by their coterie. The last thing they need to do is to go to a trunk show; they'd go running for the hills. I not only enjoy it, I think, how do you design things that are applicable to life - unless you live it?

有两种类型的设计师:一种非常高兴被锁在办公室里,周围都是自己的小圈子。他们最不需要做的事情就是去看巡回演出;他们会去爬山。我不仅喜欢它,我想,你如何设计适用于生活的东西——除非你生活在其中?

I did a bit of modeling before I took up acting, and I was up for this big campaign - I can't remember which designer - and all these execs were looking at my portfolio. Then one said: 'We'd like to use you, but can you come back next year when you've lost this.' And he tapped the underside of his chin.

在我开始表演之前,我做了一些模特,我准备参加这个大型的活动——我不记得是哪个设计师了——所有这些高管都在看我的作品集。然后其中一个说:“我们很想利用你,但是你明年丢了这个之后还能再来吗?”他拍了拍下巴下面。

There are divisions between a culinary chef and a dessert chef, also called a pastry chef. There are specializations within the pastry chef field. Some pastry chefs specialize in baking breads, while others are master cake designers. Each field requires an exceptional level of creativity and attention to detail.

烹饪厨师和甜点厨师(也被称为糕点师)之间是有区别的。在糕点厨师领域有专门的。一些糕点师擅长烘焙面包,而另一些则是蛋糕大师。每个领域都需要非凡的创造力和对细节的关注。

Better biofuels are a really big deal. That means we can precisely engineer the molecules in the fuel chain and optimize them along the way. So, if all goes well, they're going to have designer bugs in warm vats that are eating and digesting sugars to excrete better biofuels. I guess that's better living through bugs.

更好的生物燃料是一件大事。这意味着我们可以精确地设计燃料链中的分子,并在此过程中优化它们。所以,如果一切顺利,他们将在温暖的大桶里有设计好的虫子,它们正在吃和消化糖,以排出更好的生物燃料。我想这样过虫子的日子会更好。
