Carolina Herrera : (6) " I very seldom compromise. I am a Capricorn. " - Carolina Herrera " I love white shirts because they feel like a security blanket. You can wear them with anything. It’s the person and the way that they wear it that makes it different. I have been designing white shirts forever, but I don’t get tired of it. " - Carolina Herrera " Don’t wear excessive make-up as you grow older. Young women can wear whatever make-up they want, but if you are older, you will regret it. " - Carolina Herrera " You have to deal with the fashion egos. You know, there is a lot. It shouldn’t be treated that seriously because fashion is only making dresses to make women look beautiful. We’re not inventing anything new. " - Carolina Herrera " I was schooled at home, then didn’t go to university because I married when I was 17. I didn’t go into work until late in my life. " - Carolina Herrera " I love books; my suitcases are always full of them. Books and shoes. I read when I am sad, when I am happy, when I am nervous. My favourite British author is Jane Austen, and my favourite American one is John O’Hara. " - Carolina Herrera
