A few weeks ago, the designer gave her opinion on the shoes she would never wear and which she believes every woman should avoid because they don’t add anything to the outfit.

As he told Mexican journalist Adela Micha, no woman should wear sports shoes.

“I don’t walk in tennis shoes, but in shoes without a heel. The man looks strange, like those people who go to the gym and put on pants and suddenly put them on to go out. They look terrible! Everything has its moment,” Herrera said in an interview.

However, along with this thinking and her maxim that she has a white shirt in her closet, she has repeatedly given advice and other tips on how to always look glamorous.

3. Naturalness: Freshness and naturalness can be the most elegant in appearance, not excess makeup.

This is perhaps his most important recommendation because it is related to culture and is crucial.

Elegance is not defined solely by what you wear, it is the way you behave, the way you speak, what you read
