The most beautiful makeup of a woman is passion. But cosmetics are easier to buy.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
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
Image
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
Image
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
Image
I don't like [to] make a woman ... an abstract concept of the fashion. I don't like [to] say, You must wear that. ... I am not a dictator.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Fashion is defined by what later becomes out of fashion.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
I love bows, … And I feel some couture pots coming on.

Image
I adore America. It's an extraordinary country. A new country.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
I prefer to shock rather than to bore through repetition.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
I have always believed that fashion was not only to make women more beautiful, but also to reassure them, give them confidence.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
I love black because it affirms, designs and styles. A woman in a black dress is a pencil stroke.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
Fashions fade, style is eternal.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
I'm so secluded. Very alone.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
Fashion is like a party. Getting dressed is preparing to play a role.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
Over the years I have learned that what is important in a dress is the woman who is wearing it.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
What is wonderful about my art is that dream and reality can become one. There is just one step between the two.
Yves Saint Laurent
Image
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
Image
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.
