Saint Laurent first worked as Christian Dior's assistant, then at 21 taking over the House of Dior when Dior died. He began designing under his own name in 1962.
Fashions fade - style is eternal.
I wish I had invented blue jeans. They have expression, modesty, sex appeal, simplicity - all I hope for in my clothes.
I want to thank all the women who have worn my clothes, the famous and the unknown, who have been so faithful to me and given me so much joy.
