I'm so secluded. Very alone.
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.

A good model can advance fashion by ten years.
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.
Dressing is a way of life.
I'd really like to be in closer contact with life. I'm a little too distant, I guess. I like to place myself outside.
I couldn't love a woman who inspired me to be totally disinterested. If I fell in love with a woman for an artistic reason, or from the point of view of my work, I think it would rob her of something.
Fashions fade, style is eternal.
Isn't elegance forgetting what one is wearing?
We must never confuse elegance with snobbery.
Over the years I have learned that what is important in a dress is the woman who is wearing it.
It pains me physically to see a woman victimized, rendered pathetic, by fashion.
I adore America. It's an extraordinary country. A new country.
I am no longer concerned with sensation and innovation, but with the perfection of my style.
Rien n'est plus beau qu'un corps nu. 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.
