‘My Fashion Mantra, If I’ — Isabel Toledo Quote Tee | Wear Words Typographic Statement Tee — Classic Tee

“My fashion mantra, if I have one at all, is amuse and confuse, relax and enjoy.” “Amuse and confuse” was Isabel Toledo’s documented motto, fitting for the Cuban-born designer who made Michelle Obama’s lemongrass inauguration ensemble in 2009 and kept her distance from trends her whole life. The quietly radical half is “relax and enjoy.” So much talk about clothes runs on anxiety and argument; her mantra proposes the opposite, that pleasure taken lightly is reason enough, and a good time is its own defense.
