Enigmatic, daring and astonishingly creative, Yves Saint Laurent is credited with the elevation of haute couture to fine art, turning the fashion show into a spectacle of breath-taking proportions, and revolutionizing the gendered norms of womenswear.
In beautiful photographs and insightful text, this pocket-sized book depicts the designer's ascent from fashion student to the right-hand of Christian Dior.
After founding his own house in 1961, Saint Laurent astounded the fashion world with his blend of elegance and artistic drama.
