You will all remember Oscar de la Renta, the fashion mastermind, by his fabulous dresses. Fabulous is actually too light a word, gorgeous, graceful, elegant, the list goes on really, but my point is, I can't help but remember Oscar de la Renta's genius quotes. Whether it was on fashion or women, the man spoke words of wisdom. Here are a few of our favorite quotes by the unforgettable Oscar de la Renta.
