More quotes by Oscar de la Renta
Gardening is how I relax. It's another form of creating and playing with colors.
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
Nothing is contrived. At night, the clothes should pour like liquid over the body.
Oscar de la Renta
You don't go to Buckingham Palace in a sweater.
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
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.

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
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.
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
Accept your friends for who they are, not for who you want them to be.

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
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
When I was a boy, I thought scent was contained in dewdrops on flowers and if I got up very early in the morning, I could collect it and make perfume.
Oscar de la Renta
The most important thing? Perfect lighting at all times.
Oscar de la Renta
I don't really know how to do casual clothes.
