It's very important to have a definitive style as a designer.

I've been dressing Renee on the red carpet for the past three years, ... I think she always looks great. She has the right proportion for my clothes. She has that tiny waist and she loves fashion.

You need somebody you respect and admire to back you always.
Carolina Herrera
Image
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.

I think elegance is always going to be there.
Carolina Herrera

In fashion, you have to have perseverance. You have to do it again and again, but it's something that comes out of my heart, and I love it.
Carolina Herrera

I love books my suitcases are always full of them. Books and shoes. I read when I am sad, when I am happy, when I am nervous. My favourite British author is Jane Austen, and my favourite American one is John O'Hara.

Carolina Herrera
Image
Glamour is beyond beauty and beyond age. It's like sex appeal. You either have it or you don't, but I don't think it's the end of the world if you don't have it!
Carolina Herrera
Image
Fashion should be fun. It shouldn't be labelled 'intellectual.'
Carolina Herrera
Image
Life always has a bit of a challenge in front of you, and that's what makes you fight for it.
Carolina Herrera
Image
I don't get my inspiration from books or a painting. I get it from the women I meet.
Carolina Herrera
Image
I have always loved trouser suits. It's something I absolutely believe in for women.
Carolina Herrera

I approach fashion as an evolution. It's always changing. As you know, sometimes it changes in three months.
Carolina Herrera
Image
Feeling good about yourself and your life is very important. I'm a happy woman, happy with my husband, my daughters, my grandchildren. We all get along quite well, and that keeps me centered.

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.
