Kurzbeschreibung
One of the most distinctive and influential designers of the second half of the twentieth century, Yves Saint Laurent takes his place in the pantheon of French couturiers, alongside Coco Chanel, Christian Dior, and Jeanne Lanvin. "Yves Saint Laurent", the first comprehensive retrospective of his life's work, will accompany an exhibition of some 250 garments from the collection of the Fondation Pierre Berge-Yves Saint Laurent at the Petit Palais in Paris. From his early days working under Dior and heading the House of Dior after his mentor's death, to the opening of his first pret 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, this volume reveals the breadth and scope of the designer's entire career. With a preface by Pierre Berge, author Faride Chenoune explores the sources of inspiration that drove Saint Laurent's continuous innovation, drawing upon painting, sculpture, theatre, opera, literature, and cinema. The exhibition at the Petit Palais will run March 11-August 29, 2010, and it may also travel to the Victoria & Albert Museum in London.

A legend celebrated...
6. Juni 2010
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
These days, celebrities lending their name to a brand is commonplace, a practice that's become - in our humble opinion - vulgar. Whether based on greed, narcissism, or simply bad management, it seems like every other Hollywood leading lady (and more and more, leading man) has a line of clothing, home goods, energy drinks, [insert name of nearly any other item you can think of here].
For every dozen Hollywood starlets or handful of douchebags (Ed Hardy/Christian Audigier comes to mind) hawking cheap wares at Macys, Kmart and QVC, however, there are one or two designers who've actually given up their blood, sweat, and tears - not to mention learning the art and possessing genuine creative talent - to legitimately deserve the right to put their name to a label. Dior, Fendi, Gucci, Chanel, Lanvin, Louis Vuitton... timeless, classic, beautiful brands - all of which carry a name from an actual person. Standing strong among them, with a rich history of creative brilliance, is Yves Saint Laurent.
The first tome to celebrate the sheer design genius of the man, Yves Saint Laurent represents a comprehensive retrospective of the designer, the icon, the legendary god of fashion who helped create the industry that we know today as fashion. A celebrity among celebrities, from his first couture collection to his last, Saint Laurent's clothes were celebrated and his brilliance admired- as well they should be.
As vibrant, diverse and fascinating as the man himself, Yves Saint Laurent - the book - plays excellent tribute to the artist. An accompaniment to a retrospective exhibition at the Petit Palais in Paris (featuring more than 300 garments; on view through August 29, 2010), it's a first-rate volume that's as full of history as it is photographs. Aside from his fashion, the volume highlights Saint Laurent's philosophy of style, with special attention paid to his muses- a select handful of women who he not only designed for, but adored.
Although he certainly created a few things that were a bit outside the norm (a perfect example being his knitted wedding dress from the mid-60s, which made the unfortunate woman wearing it look like an enormous tampon), Saint Laurent was known for his sophisticated style, albeit always with at least a touch of glamour. He understood women - and celebrated them; something instantly apparent in his designs. This volume brings that - as well as all the designer's nuances - to the general public, along with images of his hand-selected fabric samples, drawings, sketches, photographs, models... it would be exhausting if it weren't so exciting and enthralling.
At just under 400 pages with more than 200 full color illustrations, this is a coffee table book that should take its place at the top of the stack and remain there. Beautiful and fascinating from cover to cover, Yves Saint Laurent is the next best thing to a conversation with the designer himself.

absolutely great

Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This book is exactly what I was looking for about Yves Saint Laurent. The photos are brilliant and colorful with detailed information of each one. YSL was a legendary designer and the author covered his talented journey in the fashion world wonderfully! I would recommend this book for anyone interested in fashion or modeling, it reflects how timeless his designs were. There are also great photos of some famous models too. It takes you back to a special time when even in the fashion world things were more simple and people really dressed for the occasion. A treasure to keep nearby for reference or to escape.
