I might just walk round the world in my skin like my ancestors. Black is beautiful. A contact with it heightens beauty.
A lot of designers have a thing for it. My best color is black. It is more than a color; it’s my skin. What an amazing life that I’ll be rocking it like forever 🙂
Here are 10 interesting sayings about black:
- “Women who wear black lead colorful lives.” – Neiman Marcus
- “I wore black because I liked it. I still do and wearing it still means something to me. It’s still my symbol of rebellion—against a stagnant status quo, against our hypocritical houses of God, against people whose minds are closed to others’ ideas.” – Johnny Cash
- “You can wear black at any time. You can wear it at any age. You may wear it for almost any occasion; a ‘little black frock’ is essential to a woman’s wardrobe.” – Christian Dior
- “I think in black.” – Gareth Pugh
- “Women think of all colors except the absence of color. I have said that black has it all. White, too. Their beauty is absolute. It is the perfect harmony.” – Coco Chanel
- “You can have any color, as long as it’s black.” – Henry Ford
- “Black is always elegant. It is the most complete color in the whole world, made of all the colors in the palette.” – Ricardo Tisci
- “I work in three shades of black.” – Rei Kawakubo
- “But when I fell in love with black, it contained all color. It wasn’t a negation of color. It was an acceptance. Because black encompasses all colors. Black is the most aristocratic color of all …You can be quiet, and it contains the whole thing.” – Louise Nevelson
- “I’ve been 40 years discovering that the queen of all colors was black.” – Pierre-August Renoir
I’m so black today got some black bonus quote for y’all 🙂
“Black is not sad. Bright colors are what depresses me. They’re so…empty. Black is poetic. How do you imagine a poet? In a bright yellow jacket? Probably not.” – Ann Demeulemeester
Have a beautiful day.
