This exhibition is, to me, a bittersweet event. Isabella Blow made our world more vivid, trailing colour with every pace she took. It is a sorrier place for her absence. When I visited her beloved clothes in a storage room in South Kensington, it seemed quite clear the collection would be of immense value to a great many people. I do believe that in choosing to exhibit them we’ve done the right thing – and that it is what she would have wanted. I am doing this in memory of a dear friend, in the hope that her legacy may continue to aid and inspire generations of designers to come.

With any shoe, you have to condition like you’re conditioning for a sport. You work out different muscles. If you put me in a pair of eleven-inch stilettos without a platform, I’ll have blisters and I won’t be able to walk. There’s no way. Your bones aren’t built for that. Eight-inch with a platform, that’s easy. I’ve got some Ugg boots. The only problem is I feel like I’m falling backwards. My muscles just aren’t built for flats anymore.

And I feel love. Love and sorrow. Love is not blind, not true love. Love is lucid and wise. Daphne Guinness Sunday Oct 10 @ 12:48pm

Life can shatter the perfection of form. Never surrender to life, find safe refuge, for life may steal your dreams away. Daphne Saturday Oct 10 @ 09:27am

“I’m into space. I’m into M-theory. Basically, all I like doing is studying physics and art. I’m not really into fashion at all. And I don’t think it’s going to be that interesting on Mars. There’s not really much to do.”

The capacity to love, or the lack of it, is what distinguishes one human soul from another. Love conquers all. Daphne Guinness Thursday Aug 8 @ 07:24am
