More quotes by 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
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
Fashion comes and goes, but style is eternal.
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
Seeing Cubism paintings at the Beaubourg makes me very happy and also old films.
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
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
To be beautiful, woman enough to have a black sweater, black skirt and walk arm in arm with the man she loves.
Yves Saint Laurent
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
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
It pains me physically to see a woman victimized, rendered pathetic by fashion.
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
I don't at all search for an ideal woman, but several ideal women.
Yves Saint Laurent
I love black because it affirms, designs and styles. A woman in a black dress is a pencil stroke.
Yves Saint Laurent
[Fashion is] a kind of vitamin for style.
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
No more rules, the freedom of dressing. The beauty of mixing vintage clothes with a pair of jeans that I love.
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
My name will be written in fiery letters on the Champs Elysees.
Yves Saint Laurent
