3. Calvin Klein
Calvin Klein studied fashion in New York and apprenticed for a suit manufacturer.

His business now includes clothing, cosmetics, fragrances and home collections.
4. Carolina Herrera
This is one our favorite quotes by Carolina Herrera and we think she is a true inspiration to women in fashion, and more, around the world. Carolina started to be known by regularly appearing on the International Best Dressed List in the 80s. Her trend marks are classy pieces like pencil skirts paired with crisp white cotton shirts. In 2008 she was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Council of Fashion Designers of America.
5. Christian Dior
When Christian Dior launched his New Look collection in 1947 he radically changed the direction of midcentury fashion, bringing the world a new idea of luxury from postwar Paris. Bustier bodices, bellshaped skirts, rounded shoulders and cinched waists made Diors work different and irreverent. Dior took the world by storm, never producing an unpopular collection during his administration as the head of Dior brand.
6. Christian Louboutin
Christian Louboutin was born in France in 1963. He was expelled from school at age 16 and started working for the brilliant shoe designer Charles Jourdan two years later. In the early 1990s, Louboutin launched his own line of womens shoes. He added his legendary red soles in 1993. The Louboutin brand is one of our favorites and his wonderful and unique shoes are all we want.
7. Christian Lacroix
Christian Lacroix directs his devotion and talent for fantasy and theatrics to create true design spectacles. Lacroix arrived in the 80s with the opening of his fashion house and immediately set the world on fire with unexpected mixes of colors and patterns. The idea of seeing everybody clad the same is not really my cup of tea. This is one of the best quotes of Lacroix, fighting for unique and irreverent pieces in the world of fashion.
8. Coco Chanel
No quote could be more appropriate from the woman who gave us the little black dress. Born August 19, 1883, in Saumur, France, Coco Chanel is famous for her timeless designs, trademark suits, and little black dresses. Chanel had a brief career as a singer before opening her first clothes shop in 1910. In the 1920s, she launched her first perfume and introduced the Chanel suit and the little black dress.
