Little Book of Yves Saint Laurent. The Story of the Iconic Fashion House
The Little Book of Yves Saint Laurent is a pocket book that exquisitely illustrates the history of 60 years of innovative fashion design. Enigmatic, daring and surprisingly creative fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent is credited with elevating haute couture to fine art, transforming the fashion show into a spectacle of breathtaking scale, and revolutionizing the gender norms of womenswear. Presenting Saint Laurent’s beginnings in Algeria as a precocious boy making miniature garments from scraps of fabric, Yves Saint Laurent’s book depicts the designer’s rise from fashion student to Christian Dior’s right-hand man. Continuing his career, Saint Laurent founded his own fashion house in 1961, created the famous le smoking pantsuit, established the leather jacket as one of the leading fashion pieces and amazed the fashion world with its combination of elegance and artistic drama. A little book about Yves Saint Laurent provides documentary evidence of the talent of a visionary and fashion designer. |
