The Visionary Behind the Brand
Yves Saint Laurent was born in 1936 in Algeria and quickly rose to fame as a prodigy in fashion. At just 21, he became the head designer at Christian Dior, earning critical acclaim. However, after a brief departure, he launched his eponymous brand. His debut collection in 1962 introduced the world to the now-iconic beatnik look, which became an instant sensation.
Game-Changing Designs
Saint Laurent's audacious designs broke barriers. The Le Smoking tuxedo, launched in 1966, redefined power dressing for women by blurring gender norms. He also popularized the sheer blouse, peacoat, and safari jacket, expanding women's wardrobes beyond traditional formalities.
