Fashion has always been a repetition of ideas, but what makes it new is the way you put it together.
Carolina Herrera
Image
When you work in fashion, you need to work as a team. You cannot do anything on your own.
Carolina Herrera
Image
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.
Carolina Herrera
Image
Politics are private. I don't understand people who try to convince you to join one party or another.
Carolina Herrera
Image
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.

Image
You have to have curiosity in life. The moment you don't have any more curiosity, then don't do anything. Retire and stay in your house.

People get nervous accessorising, but there is nothing wrong with adding a belt or a pair of shoes in another colour.
Carolina Herrera
Image
Money doesn't buy elegance. You can take an inexpensive sheath, add a pretty scarf, gray shoes, and a wonderful bag, and it will always be elegant.
Carolina Herrera
Image
Work doesn't seem to interfere with my life. I have time for everything, even time to be alone.
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.
Carolina Herrera
Image
Luxury will be always around, no matter what happens in the world.
Carolina Herrera
Image
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.

Just wear what you think looks beautiful.
Carolina Herrera
Image
Intuition is a strong feminine quality.
Carolina Herrera
Image
You cannot forget about your femininity. You don't have to compete with men in that respect.
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.
