More quotes by Yves Saint Laurent
I don't at all search for an ideal woman, but several ideal women.
Yves Saint Laurent
I am no longer concerned with sensation and innovation, but with the perfection of my style.
Yves Saint Laurent
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
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
Finding your own style is not easy, but once found it brings complete happiness. It gives you self-confidence, always.
Yves Saint Laurent
Decadence attracts me. It suggests a new world, and, for me, society's struggle between life and death is absolutely beautiful.
Yves Saint Laurent
We must never confuse elegance with snobbery.
Yves Saint Laurent
A woman's wardrobe shouldn't change every six months. You should be able to use the pieces you already own and add to them. Because they are like timeless classics.
Yves Saint Laurent
I always believed that style was more important than fashion. They are rare, those who imposed their style while fashion makers are so numerous.
Yves Saint Laurent
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
Without elegance of the heart, there is no elegance.
Yves Saint Laurent
I pass for a hypersensitive, reclusive neurotic, which I may well be, but I hope the year won't come when my anxieties and fatigue will destroy my love of this life, of all the things that inspire me--a line of music, a face in a Vermeer portrait, a character in an opera, or a model born in Harlem.
Yves Saint Laurent
What is wonderful about my art is that dream and reality can become one. There is just one step between the two.
Yves Saint Laurent
The most beautiful clothes that can dress a woman are the arms of the man she loves. But for those who haven't had the fortune of finding this happiness, I am there.
Yves Saint Laurent
There are women who have completely transformed my view of fashion.
Yves Saint Laurent
I'm so secluded. Very alone.
Yves Saint Laurent
I want to thank all the women who have worn my clothes, the famous and the unknown, who have been so faithful to me and given me so much joy.
Yves Saint Laurent
Over the years I have learned that what is important in a dress is the woman who is wearing it.
Yves Saint Laurent
I adore America. It's an extraordinary country. A new country.
Yves Saint Laurent
My name will be written in fiery letters on the Champs Elysees.
