More quotes by Yves Saint Laurent

Yves Saint Laurent

Yves Saint Laurent

Yves Saint Laurent
Anyone who reaches for great expression has to be careful of the ridiculous.
Yves Saint Laurent
It pains me physically to see a woman victimized, rendered pathetic by fashion.
Yves Saint Laurent
The most beautiful makeup of a woman is passion. But cosmetics are easier to buy.

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
[Fashion is] a kind of vitamin for style.
Yves Saint Laurent
