More From Carolina Herrera

But, christ, there's a difference between exotic and foreign, isn't there? exotic means you know how to use your foreignness, or you make yourself a little foreign in order to appear exotic. real foreign is a little scary, believe me.
Real Believe Mean
I have always been drawn to designing fashions that are rebellious, like black leather jackets on suburban kinds, a corset dress, punk, blue jeans. i love that. fashion changes all the time, and what is considered extreme or elegant or luxurious (or not luxurious) is changing all the time.
Fashion Blue Leather Jackets
I could not do what i do, and teach a class, and never miss a deadline, never be late for anything if i was a lush, ok? i would really love to read a piece that said, 'he is not a lush.' that would be fabulous, it would be a first, i could show it to people and say, 'look!'
Class People Missing
I had a very down-to-earth product, my wrap dress, which was really a uniform. it was just a simple little cotton-jersey dress that everybody loved and everybody wore. that one dress sold about 3 or 4 million. i would see 20, 30 dresses walking down one block. all sorts of different women. it felt very good. young and old, and fat and thin, and poor and rich.
Block Simple Dresses
White people scare the crap out of me. i have never been attacked by a black person, never been evicted by a black person, never had my security deposit ripped off by a black landlord, never had a black landlord, never been pulled over by a black cop, never been sold a lemon by a black car salesman, never seen a black car salesman, never had a black person deny me a bank loan, never had a black person bury my movie, and i've never heard a black person say, 'we're going to eliminate ten thousand jobs here - have a nice day!'
Movie Jobs Nice
To me a lush carpet of pine needles or spongy grass is more welcome than the most luxurious persian rug.

Nature Dust Hands
Nature does not suffer her veil to be taken from her, and what she does not choose to reveal to the spirit, thou wilt not wrest from her by levers and screws.
Nature Taken Science
Anything in history or nature that can be described as changing steadily can be seen as heading toward catastrophe.
