It's important to keep on keeping on, to feel good about yourself and be happy with who you are.

I just can't live without chocolate - I have between two and six pieces every day.

I don't know why some women don't wear make-up. Every woman should gild the lily.

Knowing yourself, and learning to love yourself as you are, is the beginning of beauty. I think the most important thing is to show off what's most beautiful about you and to hide what's less beautiful.

Sonia Rykiel

Being one step ahead of a fashion trend is not so important to me. What matters is to always forge ahead.

Sonia Rykiel

First I made a dress because I was pregnant and I wanted to be the most beautiful pregnant woman. Then I made a sweater because I wanted to have one that wasn't like anyone else's.

I don't know how to knit.

Sonia Rykiel

My breakfast is very important.

Sonia Rykiel

You have to be luxurious nude. It's difficult to move in the nude in front of a mirror. It's much easier to move when you're dressed. But if you can walk around in the nude easily in front of your man, if you can be luxurious in the nude, then you've really got it.

Sonia Rykiel

I don't read e-mails because I hate them.

Sonia Rykiel

As soon as I am up, I brush my hair. I eat breakfast first: tea and brown bread, and sometimes a fresh fruit juice like orange or grapefruit. I write notes on the previous day in my notebook, then I shower.

Sonia Rykiel

I hate the word 'feminine!' I mean, there is a woman and a man, and when I say 'woman,' it suggests all that is radiant, tender, fascinating, gentle, demoniac, exaggerated! 'Feminine' makes me think of somebody who is spindly and over-sweet - I don't like that!

Sonia Rykiel

When I started in fashion, for the first 10 years, I said to myself every day, 'I'm going to quit tomorrow.'

I've never been interested in dressing one woman. What's interested me was to have a philosophy. It hasn't been important to put a woman in a blue dress. I wanted to dress women who wanted to look at themselves. To stand out. To be women who were not part of the crowd. A woman who fights and advances.

1968 was the beginning of the hippie movement in fashion. That movement made fashion change completely. It was not necessary to be always dressed up. You could be dressed the way you wanted - it was absolute freedom.

Women should look at themselves and decide for themselves what color or length they should wear.

Sonia Rykiel

I came from an intellectual Parisian family. My father was a watchmaker; my mother was a housewife. We discussed politics, art, sculpture - never fashion.

Sonia Rykiel

A dress will never make a woman sexy, fatale, magnificent, mysterious. It's a way of walking, of standing, or existing, the way you give your hand or your regard. That's what makes the dress.

Sonia Rykiel

To me, the biggest revolution of the 20th century was the pill.

Sonia Rykiel

We are working women. Also, we have the problem of children, of men, to take care of our houses, so many things. I try to explain that in my clothes. They are clothes for everyday life. That is the real life of woman.
