In a couple of years, I'll be the most glamorous woman, hopefully..

I'm my own person, and I want people to know me for who I am..

I don't want to be known as the black model. I want to be recognized as Chanel Iman, a personality..

It takes time to be who you really want to be. It doesn't happen overnight..

Don't be afraid to express yourself through fashion!.

Five years from now I see myself still working hard to get where I want to be, because I think big..

Accept yourself, love yourself..

A good night's sleep is always the best way to wake up and go to work..

We always had 'Vogue' in our house. But, when I was around 12, my Mom finally took me seriously about modeling and put a stack of magazines in front ….

I drink a lot of protein shakes and do a lot of weight lifting..

Mostly I'm proud to be an African-American woman, but I'm glad I have a universal look as well..

That’s my next journey - to be a great actress..

I'm a Christian girl. I pray every night and before meals and before I go on stage not to fall..

I always take my time when picking out outfits at home, but I will say I can change pretty quick when I'm in a hurry..

The first time my friends saw me in a magazine I was so excited..

You learn to be comfortable in your own skin, and your body changes throughout life, so you can't sweat the small stuff..

I have had the privilege of working with the best in the business, from photographers to designers to magazines. There's not much more to ask for but….

Honestly, I try to forget Fashion Week once it's over. I just want to go home and rest and just forget I even did it. It could drive you crazy! It's ….

It usually takes an ethnic girl - I'm not saying black, I'm saying ethnic, let's make that clear - twice as long. We've gotta work extra-hard to stay….

I'm grateful to look the way I do. However, if I could change anything, I would like to be a bit bigger all over. Not much - just a bit..

At the end of the day, I feel like I have no one to blame but myself if I'm not satisfied with how I look on the runway..
