More quotes by Oscar de la Renta
The essence of style is how you live your life
Oscar de la Renta
As far as preference between fall and spring collections, I have none that I prefer to design. With fall you have a lot more items, but of course I am from the Dominican Republic, so I love the warm weather.
Oscar de la Renta
I am not interested in shock tactics. I just want to make beautiful clothes.
Oscar de la Renta
Nothing is contrived. At night, the clothes should pour like liquid over the body.
Oscar de la Renta
I come from a very warm island, where colors are very important, very vibrant, and obviously the color has been an influence on my work.
Oscar de la Renta
We're dealing with sophisticated customers. What's most important to these women is individuality. I have to create things she'll want to wear, no matter who she is.
Oscar de la Renta
The most important beauty is not that with which you were born, but the beauty of character which grows through a woman's life and maybe never stops growing.
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
If you want to establish an international presence you can't do so from New York. You need the consecration of Paris.
Oscar de la Renta
I would like better to be known as the Godfather of Fashion, with all the implications that that word has.
Oscar de la Renta
The most important thing? Perfect lighting at all times.
Oscar de la Renta
Be the designer of your own destiny.
Oscar de la Renta
I want to make clothes that people will wear, not styles that will make a big splash on the runway.
Oscar de la Renta
I don't really know how to do casual clothes.
Oscar de la Renta
I hate pretty. It’s a very empty word. It gives a bad name to beauty.
Oscar de la Renta
Every day you have to reinvent yourself
Oscar de la Renta
What women have achieved in the last 50 years, I wish men would have achieved in the last 100.
Oscar de la Renta
You don't go to Buckingham Palace in a sweater.
Oscar de la Renta
I always say: To be well dressed you must be well naked.
Oscar de la Renta
Regardless of how good or bad a collection might be, it's a letdown after the show is over. It's done. Something you've worked on for months is just over.
