Image
I tried to show that fashion is an art. For that, I followed the counsel of my master Christian Dior and the imperishable lesson of Mademoiselle Chanel. I created for my era and I tried to foresee what tomorrow would be.
Yves Saint Laurent

My name will be written in fiery letters on the Champs Elysees.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
We must never confuse elegance with snobbery.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
I participated in the transformation of my era. I did it with clothes, which is surely less important than music, architecture, painting but whatever it's worth I did it.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
Dressing is a way of life. It brings you joy. It can give you freedom and liberation, help you to find yourself and to move without restraint. Isn't elegance forgetting what one is wearing?
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
Each model I have represents a type of ideal women to me.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
I love women. I love all the bright and attractive people and things of this world, the flame and also the moth, the dancer and the dance.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
Fashions pass quickly, and nothing is more pathetic than those puppets of fashion outrageously made up one day, pale the next, pleated or ironed stiff, libertine or ascetic. Playing with fashion is an art. The first rule is don't burn your wings.

The most beautiful makeup of a woman is passion. But cosmetics are easier to buy.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
I don't really like knees.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
Moda je prolazna, dok stil traje, on je večan.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
The street and me is a love story. 1971 is a great date because, finally, fashion took to the street.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
I don't at all search for an ideal woman, but several ideal women.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
To be beautiful, woman enough to have a black sweater, black skirt and walk arm in arm with the man she loves.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
No more rules, the freedom of dressing. The beauty of mixing vintage clothes with a pair of jeans that I love.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
I don't like [to] make a woman ... an abstract concept of the fashion. I don't like [to] say, You must wear that. ... I am not a dictator.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
A designer who is not also a couturier, who hasn't learned the most refined mysteries of physically creating his models, is like a sculptor who gives his drawings to another man, an artisan, to accomplish.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
I find men's clothing fascinating because sometime between, say, 1930 and 1936 a handful of basic shapes were created and still prevail as a sort of scale of expression, with which every man can project his own personality and his own dignity.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
I wish I had invented blue jeans. They have expression, modesty, sex appeal, simplicity - all I hope for in my clothes.
