I would like better to be known as the Godfather of Fashion, with all the implications that that word has.

Oscar de la Renta
Excess is not really something I consider a bad thing especially when you are talking about living.
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.
