My accessories are like gestures. A scarf to play with, a shoulder bag that frees the hands, a soft belt - a chain, always - that sublimates the sway of the hips. -Yves Saint Laurent The most important designer of the 20th century. He invented so many codes of modern elegance. He watched so much change in society. -Valerie Hermann Brought popular culture, a mannish swagger, sexual power, and ethnic awareness to fashion. He gave women a wardrobe that spoke of confidence and authority. -Washington Post
