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.

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

There have been a lot of changes [in the fashion industry], of course. You just have to accept it and be strong.

I don't get my inspiration from books or a painting. I get it from the women I meet.
Carolina Herrera
Image
Most people travel with a good book, but I also keep my agenda with me I'll flip through the pages and take a few moments to organize my life a little - I rarely get the time to do this normally.

Fashion should be fun. It shouldn't be labelled 'intellectual.'

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