The little black dress must be luxurious, rich, sensual, diaphanous, exotic, severe, lush, demure, demanding, frivolous, amusing, and it must linger in memory, but above all, it must be simple and little and black.

Politics are private. I don't understand people who try to convince you to join one party or another.
Carolina Herrera
When you work in fashion, you need to work as a team. You cannot do anything on your own.
Carolina Herrera
The '70s were full of creativity. Everybody was so unique. It was a very creative period, and I think to be a designer you have to know a little about art and literature and music because there is inspiration in all of these things. You're looking for beauty but also something that makes sense.
Carolina Herrera
I don't like trends. They tend to make everybody look the same.

Carolina Herrera
You have to find your own style, and it's difficult to define what style is. It's not what you're wearing it's how you wear it. It's something very personal, and it reflects the way you live and your house, the books you read, the art you have.
Carolina Herrera
You need somebody you respect and admire to back you always.
Carolina Herrera
Even if it doesn't fit the woman, like, let's say a very short skirt, and the woman doesn't have the legs or the height to wear the skirt, but she has to wear it because it's fashionable. Don't do it! If it doesn't look good on you, don't worry about it.
Carolina Herrera
Intuition is a strong feminine quality.
Carolina Herrera
It's very important to have a definitive style as a designer.
Carolina Herrera
If you do something for so long, it's really great in your life, right?
