Yves

"Tu aimais la beauté Yves.

On ne sait pas d'ou vient un goût, un instinct, personne ne vous l'apprend. D'où que nous venions, nous naissons seul avec lui." *

Yves Saint Laurent by Jalil Lespert (2014)

* "You loved beauty Yves. We don't know where taste and instinct come from, no one teaches you. Wherever we come from, we are born alone with it."

The presence of the absent artist

"Look at the clothes, and not who's wearing them." 

Patrick Scallon

former director of communications

Maison Martin Margiela
