A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
设计师
Designer
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.
我认为有商业意识是非常重要的。作为一名设计师，你可能过于专注于设计和时尚方面，而忘记了商业方面。
When we did Dynasty, it was the clothes. I think the clothes affected every woman around the world. I got so many letters, I think we made the designer a millionaire!
当我们做王朝的时候，是衣服。我认为这些衣服影响了全世界的每一个女人。我收到了很多信，我想我们让这位设计师成了百万富翁!
Providing, meaning to a mass of unrelated needs, ideas, words and pictures - it is the designer's job to select and fit this material together and make it interesting.
为大量不相关的需求、想法、文字和图片提供意义——设计师的工作就是选择并组合这些材料，使其有趣。
I dropped out of school for a semester, transferred to another college, switched to an art major, graduated, got married, and for a while worked as a graphic designer.
我辍学一个学期，转到另一所大学，转到艺术专业，毕业，结婚，做了一段时间的平面设计师。
As a designer, you have to solve a lot of problems. Even though people are wearing clothes that are supposed to look beautiful, they'll have to do all kinds of things.
作为一个设计师，你必须解决很多问题。即使人们穿着看起来很漂亮的衣服，他们也不得不做各种各样的事情。
As a fashion designer, I was always aware that I was not an artist, because I was creating something that was made to be sold, marketed, used, and ultimately discarded.
作为一名时装设计师，我一直意识到自己不是一名艺术家，因为我创作的东西是用来销售、营销、使用，最终被丢弃的。
It's a very strange thing for a designer to say, but one of the things that really irritates me in products is when I'm aware of designers wagging their tails in my face.
对于一个设计师来说，这是一件很奇怪的事情，但是当我意识到设计师在我面前摆尾巴的时候，产品中真正让我恼火的事情之一。
For each episode the five of us are all wearing clothes by the same designer. It's a different designer for each episode, but for each one we're all wearing their clothes.
每集我们五个人都穿着同一位设计师的衣服。每一集都有不同的设计师，但每一集我们都穿着他们的衣服。
Couture has copied my things for years, in addition to countless other costume designers, claiming theirs were the original ideas. It's all part of the business, unfortunately.
多年来，高级定制时装一直在模仿我的设计，此外还有无数其他服装设计师，他们声称自己的设计是原创。不幸的是，这都是生意的一部分。
Whether it was working on theatre sets or stage lighting, I didn't realize most all of the skills I was exposed to were going to come in handy later on when I became a designer.
无论是在剧院布景还是舞台灯光方面，我都没有意识到，我接触到的大部分技能，在后来我成为一名设计师时，都会派上用场。
I mean, sometimes when you do a show or a campaign with a designer, you get along with them really well and you become friends. And then, sometimes, people are just a bit... weird.
我的意思是，有时候当你和设计师一起做秀或做广告时，你和他们相处得很好，你们成为了朋友。然后，有时候，人们只是有点……奇怪。
I don't have a favourite designer because I feel every designer offers something different and special, but I do really like Alexander Wang, Burberry, Stella McCartney and Balmain.
我没有一个最喜欢的设计师，因为我觉得每个设计师都提供一些不同的和特别的东西，但我真的很喜欢亚历山大王，巴宝莉，斯特拉麦卡特尼和巴尔曼。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
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 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。
I did not have a big view of many designers until I got to high school.
直到我上了高中，我才对很多设计师有了一个大的看法。
I Google everyone I meet and I look up designers.
我告诉我遇到的每一个人，我查设计师。
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 didn't long to be a designer. I always liked fashion, but it was always a bit sleeping in me.
我不久就想成为一名设计师。我一直很喜欢时尚，但它总是让我昏昏欲睡。
