Beauty is being comfortable and confident in your own skin.

There are some people who have helped to advance me and other girls, but the fashion industry is always behind popular culture. They think they understand the zeitgeist. They don't know anything about the zeitgeist.

I have been a muse to Mr. Saint-Laurent, Valentino, Calvin Klein, Donna Karan, Versace.

Iman 16 quotes

I didn't start exercising until the end of my modeling career. When you're young, you eat and drink what you want and stay up all night and still look good.

It's really not a good idea to forecast or double guess the fates; you will always be fooled.

Life is too short not to have pasta, steak, and butter.

Change makes you find your calling, your legacy, and God's divine plan for your life. Don't run from it.

The truth was I felt ugly growing up. I only really started feeling comfortable in myself when I was 40.

Iman 16 quotes

Granted, I've changed internally as I've gotten older - I take it easy, I know when to stop and take care of myself, I laugh much more and with my belly and soul - but this comes from the confidence and acceptance that comes with maturity.

When my daughter Zulekha was born, I was at the pinnacle of my working life as a model, and I pulled myself in two trying to cope with being both a mother and a career girl.

Iman 16 quotes

People called me 'Iman the black model'. In my country, we're all black, so nobody called somebody else black. It was foreign to my ears.

Iman 16 quotes

There is no age better than another. The commitment to give of yourself and the knowledge that the time is right are what's important.

Iman 16 quotes

I was not considered beautifu...

I was not considered beautiful at all. Really. And this is what all models say. But I'm still not considered that beautiful in my country. I don't know the beauty ideal where I come from - but it's not me.

Iman 16 quotes

I'm always criticised by other Somalis and Muslims for what I'm doing as a model and married to a white man and all that.

I was never a practicing Muslim. But I do consider myself a Muslim.

I don't love eating meat. I really only like chicken and fish.

When I started modeling, they tried to pay black models less than they paid Caucasian models. I turned down those jobs because I knew what I was worth.

Iman 16 quotes

I am so far more secure and more grounded and more know who I am than when I was in my 20s.

Iman 16 quotes

I have a 15-year-old daughter who thinks that I always had this self confidence that I have now at the age of 60. And I always tell her that what she is going through - the low self-esteem as a teenager - that is a right of passage.

Iman 16 quotes

I have no intention of ever writing beauty tips on how to make an African-American nose look slimmer or Asian eyes look bigger. That's degrading. Asian eyes are what's beautiful about you and what makes you different.
