You need somebody you respect and admire to back you always.
I always let other people describe me because if I describe myself you will not understand.
Fashion never stops. There is always the new project, the new opportunity.
Feeling good about yourself and your life is very important. I'm a happy woman, happy with my husband, my daughters, my grandchildren. We all get along quite well, and that keeps me centered.
A wedding dress is both an intimate and personal for a woman - it must reflect the personality and style of the bride.
Even if it doesn't fit the woman, like, let's say a very short skirt, and the woman doesn't have the legs or the height to wear the skirt, but she has to wear it because it's fashionable. Don't do it! If it doesn't look good on you, don't worry about it.
Some people take fashion very seriously....but that’s not right... Fashion should be fun!
Unfortunately, there's a lot of confusion today over what is sexy and what is vulgar. It's horrifying. They say, 'Oh, that girl is so sexy,' and she turns around and the dress is four sizes too small. Or she's wearing so much stuff, you wonder how long it took her to get ready.
Any business is the same in the beginning because nobody knows where it's going to ride.
People confuse vulgar and naked with sexiness. You want the mystery!
You never forget people who make you laugh.
I want women to really look like women from today. It's not from the past and not from the future, because I don't know what happens in the future. It is the woman of today (who) I think is a seductive woman.
I believe that you have to treat the people who work with you like your family.
Life is hard. It is not too short, it is too long. But you have to learn how to live; you have to have a sense of humour.
If you ask me to sew a button, I don't know how to do it! The idea of the whole collection and how you want to build your brand is all about working with the right people. And luck!
I don't like trends. They tend to make everybody look the same.
When I was living in Los Angeles, I always booked a moisturizing milk-and-honey massage the day before flying to Spain. It was heaven - I never got dry plane skin or felt stiff from sitting in one position.
I'm not in the fashion business; I'm in the beauty business.
The first painting that I realised I liked was 'The Garden of Earthly Delights' by Hieronymus Bosch, when I was six years old, at the Prado in Madrid. I still find myself returning there every time I'm in the city.
Intuition is a strong feminine quality.
It's very important to have a definitive style as a designer.
I don't think women need another black bag. Everybody has a black bag already, so I thought this season (needs) color.
If you date someone who isn't very good-looking but makes you laugh, you will never forget it.
You cannot forget about your femininity. You don't have to compete with men in that respect.
Perfection does not exist - only God is perfect.
