Yves Saint Laurent and Photography
Yves Saint Laurent and his designs, as captured by the greatest photographers of the 20th century
Yves Saint Laurent and his designs, as captured by the greatest photographers of the 20th century
Yves Saint Laurent collaborated with some of the greatest photographers of the 20th century. For over four decades, until the closing of his fashion house in 2002, Saint Laurent and his creations were captured by cutting-edge photographers, including such legends as Richard Avedon, Irving Penn, David Bailey, Helmut Newton, William Klein, Sarah Moon, Annie Leibovitz, Paolo Roversi, and Juergen Teller. These collaborations resulted in iconic pictures that helped shape his own image as well as that of his brand.
Yves Saint Laurent and Photography shines new light on the world of the genius couturier, tracing both the course of fashion and the history of 20th-century photography. This beautifully designed book features an astonishing range of imagery: breathtaking fashion photographs of subjects such as Audrey Hepburn, Catherine Deneuve, Naomi Campbell, and Kate Moss; portraits of Saint Laurent; and never-before-seen archival documents, all packaged in a luxe oversized volume.
