No 13-year-old or over should ever be seen in trousers that finish above the ankle. It doesn't matter how good your legs are, or if you're on a beach in Bermuda where they invented the things.
A. A. Gill
I always say spend more on classics, like a good pair of leather trousers, an amazing tailored jacket, or a classic handbag. Then you can just mix your everyday tops from the high street.
Abbey Clancy
An ancient Scythian nomad skeleton buried with an eagle was reportedly excavated near Aktobe Gorge, Kazakhstan. Ancient petroglyphs in the Altai region depict eagle hunters, and inscribed Chinese stone reliefs show eagles perched on the arms of hunters in tunics, trousers, and boots, identified as northern nomads (1st to 2nd century A.D.).
Adrienne Mayor
For ethical fashion, I really like Reformation. It's so fashionable - no hemp trousers.
Aisling Bea
I love leather. I'm very much a leather jacket, leather trousers kind of girl.
Amrita Acharia
Never, ever wear three-quarter length trousers. Even in the summer.
Andrew Scott
I'm a bit of a traditionalist; the ballroom is all about tails and I never mess about with that. But for the Latin you can have a bit fun: tight trousers, gold shirt open to my waist, be a bit ridiculous.
Anton du Beke
Practical prayer is harder on the soles of your shoes than on the knees of your trousers.
Austin O'Malley
All my stuff is men's fashion. It's always oversized shirts, boyfriend blazers and trousers.
Bella Heathcote
Were it not for the Clash, punk would have been just a sneer, a safety pin and a pair of bondage trousers.
Billy Bragg
I was on stage with Cyndi Lauper, and my trousers split. It seemed like she was going to sing for ever.
Bobby Womack
Rock music should be gross: that's the fun of it. It gets up and drops its trousers.
Bruce Dickinson
When I was eight, nine years of age, my mother bought me a pair of green trousers - corduroy green trousers. I didn't like green, and I basically buried them underground. And my mother kept asking me, 'Where are your trousers?' I said, 'Oh, I don't know.' And from then on I stopped wearing green.
Brunello Cucinelli
These people that dress up in spandex trousers with all the extraordinary makeup - I find it incredibly repulsive, always have.
Butch Trucks
We are very luck to be women, so even if we're wearing trousers, I always wear them with some lace underwear or a very feminine bra - I like that.
Carine Roitfeld
Where I went to school, Eton College, we had to wear dark trousers, a tailcoat, and a stiff, starched collar every day, and that was fine with me: Part of the reason I wanted to go there was because I've always loved dressing up.
Charlie Siem
Here we are, worrying about whether we're thin enough or whether our bottom looks too big in this pair of trousers or even whether or not I should wear a hat - does it really matter in comparison to the important things that are going on in the world?
Cherie Blair
You gotta wear the right trousers if you're gonna be a rock star.
Chris Martin
Even in moments of tranquility, Murray Walker sounds like a man whose trousers are on fire.
Clive James
I'm crazily organised with my wardrobe. Everything is hung in categories: dresses, jackets, shirts, skirts and trousers are all hung in order, and they're then hung in colour order, too, so that when I'm looking for something I know exactly where it is.
Daisy Lowe
Rey is so strong. She's cool and smart and she can look after herself. Young girls can look at her and know that they can wear trousers if they want to. That they don't have to show off their bodies.
There was nothing girlish about me. I wore clothes hand-stitched by my mother... I had only one ear pierced and preferred loose shirts and trousers. I think I was imitating my father!
I quite fancy the 1940s. I like the trams and the trousers.
I always like to have a few wardrobe options to try to see what I feel best in on the day and so preparation is key - it could be trousers, a dress, or I do love a skirt and top, so I have to be prepared.
Bono told me how to dance in high heels and he also told me about U2's Glastonbury performance and how everything that could have possibly gone wrong went wrong, including him ripping his trousers on stage. I think he was lunging and his trousers ripped! He was telling me how he had to find a new way of performing that didn't involve moving.
There is Twitter outrage at everything. Be it a pair of trousers or a short skirt, somebody, somewhere, will not like it.
Just as we outgrow a pair of trousers, we outgrow acquaintances, libraries, principles, etc., at times before they're worn out and times - and this is the worst of all - before we have new ones.
Every man has his moral backside which he refrains from showing unless he has to and keeps covered as long as possible with the trousers of decorum.
I dressed more like a pop star, I suppose, rather than the traditional blazer and tall trousers other players went for.
You had to wear a hat to go to church. We weren't allowed to straighten our hair. We couldn't wear jewellery, nail polish, open backed shoes, skirts above the knee... trousers were forbidden because male apparel on a female was not godly.
I'm best when I'm feral, when I don't wash or shave or change my trousers for a couple of weeks.
I live in jeans and own a lot of them. I'm much more comfortable in trousers and T-shirts, and I don't often wear dresses.
Although I never marched through the streets shouting for Mao, I do believe that the liberation of China at the end of the 1940s was a wonderful thing and to provide its people with a billion pairs of shoes and trousers was a fantastic achievement.
Never wear your best trousers when you go out to fight for freedom and truth.
I have always been really scared of trousers, they aren't flattering.
I've driven people mad on films that I've made - I want more takes; I want to try new lines. Then I want to interfere in the editing process, and I want to interfere in the advertising process - everything, everything. Pretty much Barbra Streisand in trousers, I am!
As far as clothes are concerned, for the day, wear something chic: a good pair of jeans, crop, and open hair with a bright lip colour. For an evening, a nice pair of high-waisted trousers and a nice blouse looks great.
Every single pair of trousers I own has a plectrum in it.
I love a bit of a sequin and a bead. I do, even though I usually wear trousers, when I put a frock on. I like a bead or a sequin.
Losing your capital is like losing your trousers. It is a real humiliation, and one not to be soon repeated.
I've got a 20 inch neck, a narrow waist and big bulging thighs so stuff off the rack doesn't fit. It's a nightmare to shop for shirts and trousers that are going to fit, because they'll be tight in one place and all baggy everywhere else.
Suits change a lot - the wide lapel thing, the fashion trends, the trousers change.
I can find every jacket under the sun that I like. But I cannot find trousers cut the way I want them. They're all really tight at the bottom. Nobody does a boot cut on a trouser leg. It drives me crazy.
To make the hips the focal point of a pair of trousers is, to me, a fashion mistake.
I'm not giving away sartorial secrets but the trousers I wear cost 19 quid.
Many women in their 40s make the mistake of wearing clothes that are too tight. Skimpy dresses and tight trousers can make you look older, so get the best fit you can find.
When I was 12, I wanted to learn how to play the guitar, and I found a chord book in a shop, and I stuffed it down my trousers. And that's how I learned to play the guitar.
Rolling my trousers down to expose the upper part of my buttocks and having a knife pressed up and down my spine by a Russian white witch, as she murmured incantations, was certainly a new experience to cure my backache. It was surprisingly soothing.
There's a thrill in flying by the seat of your pants - trousers, actually: 'pants' in English means underwear - because most shows don't operate that way. Network shows are repetitive.
I take too much luggage. I'm the kind of person who can't decide whether to pack two or four pairs of trousers, so I usually take them all. I'm getting better but still inclined to take too many items, just in case I need them; I never do.
