The most important thing? Perfect lighting at all times.
Oscar de la Renta

Oscar de la Renta
A woman plays such an active role in society. And today, the woman who influences fashion is not that very rich woman who sits at home and polishes her nails. It's the one who works, who is a doer, who does things by dressing. She's very strongly projecting an image of herself as an individual.
Oscar de la Renta
I have always felt my role as a designer is to do the very best I can for a woman to make her look her best. Fashion is only fashion once a woman puts it on.
Oscar de la Renta
I'm a very restless person. I'm always doing something. The creative process never stops.
Oscar de la Renta
I think the greatest reward I have is getting up and going to work each day. I love what I do.
Oscar de la Renta
You know I started an orphanage so totally by accident. A lady came to me and asked me if I would, I will help her and we start it with little school and then I fell in love with it.
Oscar de la Renta
