“In Morocco, I understood that my own chromaticism was that of zelliges, zouacs, djellabas and caftans. The audacities, which have been mine ever since, I owe them to this country, to the violence of the chords, the insolence of the mixtures, the ardour of the inventions. This culture has become mine, but I didn’t just import it, I annexed it, transformed it, adapted it.”  – Yves Saint Laurent
