British and American women have very different styles and a different way of living.

Life always has a bit of a challenge in front of you, and that's what makes you fight for it.
Carolina Herrera
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.

Some people take fashion very seriously....but that’s not right... Fashion should be fun!
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.

Work doesn't seem to interfere with my life. I have time for everything, even time to be alone.

Fashion is a dream. It's difficult, and there are many aspects of fashion that are very difficult, but if you love it like I do, because I really have a passion, now, for fashion, it's not easy, but nothing is easy in life.

A man has to have sensibility, wit, mystery, tolerance, and strength... Romance also helps.

People get nervous accessorising, but there is nothing wrong with adding a belt or a pair of shoes in another colour.
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
I have always loved trouser suits. It's something I absolutely believe in for women.
Carolina Herrera
Image
You can't wait for people to tell you you have to know yourself.

I think a sense of humor is the most important thing anyone can have.

Luxury will be always around, no matter what happens in the world.
Carolina Herrera
Image
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.

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.
