Description: Yves Saint Laurent is a gorgeous retrospective of his life’s work. Packed with photographs, "this luxurious volume beautifully compiles the fashion designer’s professional craft and personal history." (Booklist) From fashion historians Farid Chenoune and Florence Müller, and published to coincide with an exhibition of some 250 garments from the collection of the Fondation Pierre Bergé–Yves Saint Laurent at the Petit Palais in Paris, this is a beautiful coffee table book to display and share. With a preface by Pierre Bergé, author Faride Chenoune explores the sources of inspiration that drove Saint Laurent’s continuous innovation, drawing upon painting, sculpture, theater, opera, literature, and cinema, revealing the breadth and scope of the designer’s entire career. From his early days working under Dior and heading the House of Dior after his mentor’s death, to the opening of his first prêt a porter shop on the Rive Gauche and the debut of the Le Smoking tuxedo, to the muses he adored, Loulou de la Falaise and Catherine Deneuve among them, Yves Saint Laurent takes his place in the pantheon of French couturiers, alongside Coco Chanel, Christian Dior, and Jeanne Lanvin. This book honors that legacy.
