I am a makeup junkie... Yves St. Laurent, Christian Dior, and anything else that looks good.

Julia Barr

I went to Brown to be a French professor, and I didn't know what I was doing except that I loved French. When I got to Paris and I could speak French, I know how much it helped me to establish relationships with Karl Lagerfeld, with the late Yves St. Laurent. French, it just helps you if you're in fashion. The French people started style.

Andre Leon Talley

I stuck out more in an English public school than I would have had I marched in a May Day parade with the Red Army in Moscow or sashayed the Yves St. Laurent catwalk with supermodels or hunted seals with the Inuit or - well, you get the idea.

Rabih Alameddine

I want to go against the best fighters. That's why I'm always calling out Georges St-Pierre. I don't have anything against Georges St-Pierre. I think he's a great fighter.

Nate Diaz

I am not really sure that Diana Vreeland did Yves Saint Laurent a favor, as opposed to the world, by putting that exhibition at the Met in 1983. Because I'm sure that Saint Laurent started looking back at his own work. You see that with artists, don't you? Once they get their first retrospective, it's really hard for them to push ahead.

Suzy Menkes

My mum was very glamorous, an incredible seamstress. She made up those Vogue, Givenchy and Yves St. Laurent patterns they used to sell. It was church couture, darling! Because my dad was a pastor, she could get away with more than other women. Her skirts were that bit tighter.

Grace Jones

Yves Saint Laurent mascara is the best I've ever tried.

Tina Knowles

Yves Saint Laurent hated fashion. He loved style.

Pierre Berge

My earliest influences were Coco Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent.

Bella Freud

I carried on buying paintings, works of art, and Yves Saint Laurent, if I may say so, had a right of inspection. We even shared a common reading of the history of art. It would never have crossed Yves's mind to say to me, "Ah, I saw a Pablo Picasso . . ." He knew perfectly well what was interesting with Picasso, as did I.

Pierre Berge

I am not ashamed to admit that I'm wearing Yves Saint Laurent from top to toe.

Sophie Dahl

All the drawings and sketches and clothes of Yves Saint Laurent in the '70s were so colorful, so bright.

Frida Giannini

Yves Saint Laurent was the first person who made me feel like a woman.

Laetitia Casta

Yves Saint Laurent has a special place in my heart because he was my mother's favorite designer.

Linda Johnson Rice

Haute couture is a legitimate subject for Yves Saint Laurent and could resume one day.

Hedi Slimane

I think there's a sort of agony with all intelligent and very creative designers that it's only fashion, that in the end it's only the decorative arts. I had a feeling towards the end that Saint Laurent and Berge were very keen to attain that immortality that a lot of designers long for. You know, those endless exhibitions.
