今天的音频片段来自1993年时尚先锋朋克教母Vivienne Westwood的荒岛碟访谈(Desert Island Discs,BBC Radio 4)。
她说当年走在街上被人追着骂,时装秀也被观众嘲笑。但她从中学到了重要一课:不能只关注眼前的声音,要记住总有人会觉得你的作品很棒。然后她说出了那句经典名言:"最好的时尚配饰就是自信。”
再美的衣服,没有自信也穿不出气场。自信让你发光,让你无所畏惧。
再分享几个访谈中的英文表达:
- Shout after(背后叫骂):Protesters shouted after the politician as he left the building.
- Not very flattering(不太客气):The feedback was helpful but not very flattering.
- Feel quite heroic(英雄般的自信):I felt quite heroic wearing my grandmother's vintage dress.
- Accessory (时尚配饰,这里比喻用法): Kindness is the best accessory for making friends.
