More quotes by 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
It pains me physically to see a woman victimized, rendered pathetic by fashion.
Yves Saint Laurent
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
Fashions fade, style is eternal.
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 love bows, … And I feel some couture pots coming on.
Yves Saint Laurent
There are women who have completely transformed my view of fashion.
Yves Saint Laurent
I prefer to shock rather than to bore through repetition.
Yves Saint Laurent
Fashion is like a party. Getting dressed is preparing to play a role.
Yves Saint Laurent
I adore America. It's an extraordinary country. A new country.
Yves Saint Laurent
Elegance is no longer significant clothes have to be fun.
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
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
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
I am no longer concerned with sensation and innovation, but with the perfection of my style.
Yves Saint Laurent
I don't really like knees.
Yves Saint Laurent
Dressing is a way of life.
Yves Saint Laurent
Seeing Cubism paintings at the Beaubourg makes me very happy and also old films.
Yves Saint Laurent
For a woman, le smoking is an indispensable garment with which she finds herself continually in fashion, because it is about style, not fashion. Fashions come and go, but style is forever.
Yves Saint Laurent
[Fashion is] a kind of vitamin for style.
Yves Saint Laurent
