Yves Saint Laurent, Six Ways
Yves Saint Laurent was a dreamer, born in the summer—on August 1, 1936—in the French colony of Algeria. As a boy he happily spent his time designing dresses for his mother and re-creating theater in his comfortable family home. When Catholic school and its bullies were too much for him, the young Saint Laurent escaped through the pages of Vogue into a fantasy of Paris, fashion, beauty, and light. He would soon become one of the greatest fashion designers of the 20th century. As the sun sets on his living memory, a sweeping exhibition further weaves the legend of Yves Saint Laurent into the life of Paris and its art. READ ON
