LITTLE GUIDE TO YVES SAINT LAURENT (ORANGE HIPPO) (HB)

Despite a life marred by addiction, war and mental health struggles, Yves Saint Laurent remained a powerhouse of the fashion industry for 50 years. From jumpsuits to safari jackets to his iconic tuxedo, YSL's designs revolutionised women's clothes forever. He is widely credited with having made ready-to-wear clothes reputable and desirable, in a marked move away from haute couture. This book charts his tumultuous rise to the top, accompanied by facts and quotations from, and about, the man himself and the fashion legacy he built.
