— Pierre Berge, on the current state of couture
It's over. Fashion designers don't understand that, or maybe they don't want to. Long evening dresses with pearl and sequins — for who, for where, for what? I dare say I prefer Zara, H&M and Banana Republic. That's serving women and it's cheap.

I would have found it more credible if it was Yves Saint Laurent who said it.
Bergé's sucgh a sour puss. Its sad to see how bitter he's become. I mourn the loss of YSL but life has to go on without him. Bergé seems to have forgotten that YSL himself did long evening dresses with pearls and sequins and women bought them. I'm all for, according to Bergé 'cheap' Zara H&M etc clothes that 'serve' women but that shouldn't dictate what we wear surely. The way he snickers the word cheap puzzles me.
