‘Over the Years I Have’ — Yves Saint Laurent Quote Tee | Wear Words Typographic Statement Tee — Oversized Tee

“Over the years I have learned that what is important in a dress is the woman who is wearing it.” Attributed to the catalog of his 1983 Met retrospective — the first the Costume Institute ever gave a living designer — this was Yves Saint Laurent’s conclusion after twenty-five years of Le Smoking and safari jackets: the woman is the subject, the dress merely the supporting act. It took him a career to fully believe it. The thing you make matters far less than the person it is made for; get that backwards and the whole enterprise curdles.

**AS Colour 5082 “Faded Bone” — Oversized Tee (Cream finish).** 100% carded cotton, heavyweight 240 gsm, garment-dyed — each tee fades a little differently, so no two are identical. Oversized, boxy relaxed fit, dropped shoulders, wide twin-stitched ribbed neck, side-seamed, pre-shrunk (size down for a less roomy look). Care: machine wash cold inside-out with like colors, do NOT bleach, do NOT tumble dry (line dry in the shade to protect the garment dye), cool iron inside-out (never iron the print).
