Designer word
Coco Chanel, Cristóbal Balenciaga, Miuccia Prada, Christian Dior or Jean Paul Gaultier are some of the designers who have conquered the public with their creations, but also with their philosophy of life, advice on style or vision of the industry through the word.
Ideas that have been embodied in phrases such as "fashion is not something that only exists in dresses. Fashion is in the sky, in the streets. Fashion has to do with ideas, with the way we live, with whatThat is happening, "said Coco Chanel, who advised his clients with these words:" Keep your head, heels and high principles. "
Fashion has been understood for a long time as more than a way of dressing, it is a way of expressing itself, of introducing others."What is fashion? It is discipline. Discipline, and a creed to do only the best, to the minimum detail," said Manolo Blahnik.
Each designer has understood their trade in a special way."A good designer must be an architect for design, a sculptor for the form, color painter, musician for harmony and philosopher for measure," said Cristóbal Balenciaga.
"I make clothes, women make fashion," Azzedine Alaïa said."Designing clothes is not a profession, but an art," said Elsa Schiaparelli while the American Ralph Lauren said: "I don't design clothing, dream design."
"The dress must follow a woman's body. It is not the body who must adapt to the dress," said Hubert de Givenchy.The Spanish Manuel Pertegaz went further: "When he sees beautiful suits, God smiles pleased."
"There is no better designer than nature," said Alexander McQueen, who considered that "fashion should not be politically correct, otherwise, it would never be revolutionary."
Karl Lagerfeld pointed out: "Fashion does not have to be serious. It is proof that intelligent frivolity can be something creative and positive."
For Marc Jacobs "clothing means nothing until someone lives in it" and Yves Saint Laurent said "I have learned that the most important thing about a dress is the woman who wears it."
One thing is fashion and another style."It's not about clothes but who wears it. Who remembers which bag used to wear Sohpia Loren? But everyone remembers their neckline!" Explained the Italian designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana.
"It is not the appearance, it is the essence. It is not money, it is education. It is not clothing, it is class," Coco Chanel clarified about what for her was the style.

"What you carry is the way to introduce yourself to the world, especially today, when human contacts are so ephemeral. Fashion is an instant language," Miuccia defined Prada the style.
For John Galliano it is "to take a dress at night to a McDonald's and take heels to football. It is personality, trust and seduction";For Ralph Lauren, it is something "very personal, it has nothing to do with fashion. Fashion happens fast, the style is forever" and for Giorgio Armani "elegance is not to notice, but be remembered."
Designers have struggled to dress women to shine even more."Empowering women is something I do through clothes, a very effective means to achieve it," Donatella Versace said.
"The woman only has one defect: she does not recognize how valuable it is," said Carolina Herrera, who did not lift a stir on social networks when she pronounced "only classless women carry long hair after forty."
"When a woman becomes her best friend, life is easier," said Diane von Fürstenberg for those who in a matter of "attitude is everything."
For many of the seamstresses beauty is not synonymous with style."There are many types of beauty, and you can find it where you least expect it," said Jean Paul Gaultier.
"The ugly is attractive. The ugly is exciting. The investigation of ugliness is, for me, more interesting than the bourgeois idea of beauty," Miuccia Prada said.
"The enthusiasm for life is the secret of all beauty. There is no beauty without enthusiasm," Christian Dior used to say.
When designing, comfort has been the most important pillar for creators."Luxury must be comfortable; otherwise, it is not luxury," said "Mademoiselle" Chanel, an idea that Gianni Versace shared, who considered that "comfort is very important to me. I think people live better in Casas Grandesand with big clothes. "
