More quotes by Yves Saint-Laurent

I have always believed that fashion was not made only to make women more beautiful, but also to reassure them, give them confidence.

Over the years I have learned that what is important in a dress is the woman who is wearing it.

I don't really like knees.

I have often said that I wish I had invented blue jeans: the most spectacular, the most practical, the most relaxed and nonchalant. They have expression, modesty, sex appeal, simplicity - all I hope for in my clothes.
