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.

More quotes by Yves Saint Laurent
Without elegance of the heart, there is no elegance.
Yves Saint Laurent
I love bows, … And I feel some couture pots coming on.
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
For me, perfume, must be adapted to fashion, not the other way around.
Yves Saint Laurent
I don't really like knees.
Yves Saint Laurent
Anyone who reaches for great expression has to be careful of the ridiculous.
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
Over the years I have learned that what is important in a dress is the woman who is wearing it.
Yves Saint Laurent
I like to watch the way a model moves in my clothes, the way she gives them life, or if they are wrong, stillborn, the way her life rejects them.
Yves Saint Laurent
Fashion is like a party. Getting dressed is preparing to play a role.
Yves Saint Laurent
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
The street and me is a love story. 1971 is a great date because, finally, fashion took to the street.
Yves Saint Laurent
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
My name will be written in fiery letters on the Champs Elysees.
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
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
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
The most beautiful makeup of a woman is passion. But cosmetics are easier to buy.
Yves Saint Laurent
I wish I had invented blue jeans. They have expression, modesty, sex appeal, simplicity - all I hope for in my clothes.
Yves Saint Laurent
A good model can advance fashion by ten years.
