Fashion is like a party. Getting dressed is preparing to play a role.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
I cannot pretend to do sculpture and make a woman the ridiculous pedestal of my pretensions. To render clothing poetic, yes--but one must preserve its dignity as clothing.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
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
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
Each model I have represents a type of ideal women to me.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
The most beautiful makeup of a woman is passion. But cosmetics are easier to buy.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
There are women who have completely transformed my view of fashion and if I hadn't shown them I would never have arrived at this point in fashion, you see.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
I always believed that style was more important than fashion. They are rare, those who imposed their style while fashion makers are so numerous.

Seeing Cubism paintings at the Beaubourg makes me very happy and also old films.
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.
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
Fashions fade, style is eternal.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
Without elegance of the heart, there is no elegance.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
Le plus beau vêtement qui puisse habiller une femme, ce sont les bras de l'homme qu'elle aime. Mais, pour celles qui n'ont pas eu la chance de trouver ce bonheur, je suis là.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
Chanel freed women, and I empowered them.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
I love black because it affirms, designs and styles. A woman in a black dress is a pencil stroke.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
Elegance and beauty have been banished.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
Decadence attracts me. It suggests a new world, and, for me, society's struggle between life and death is absolutely beautiful.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
Finding your own style is not easy, but once found it brings complete happiness. It gives you self-confidence, always.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
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.
