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

Yves Saint Laurent
We must never confuse elegance with snobbery.
Yves Saint Laurent

Yves Saint Laurent
No more rules, the freedom of dressing. The beauty of mixing vintage clothes with a pair of jeans that I love.

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 am no longer concerned with sensation and innovation, but with the perfection of my style.
Yves Saint Laurent
