More quotes by Oscar de la Renta
When a woman falls in love with something so much that she wants to wear it- it is at that point that it becomes fashion.
Oscar de la Renta

Working for incredible talents like Balenciaga and Antonio Castillo, I learned about the immense skill and creativity involved in couture work.
Oscar de la Renta
If you have the right to call me a hot dog why do I not have the right to call you a stale 3-day old hamburger?
Oscar de la Renta
In fashion, the most important thing is to move on.
Oscar de la Renta
If you wear a different perfume every day, I do not recognize you.
Oscar de la Renta
The well dressed man never stands out in a crowd his elegance sets him apart.
