About this product

Product Information

The world's leading authorities on fashion and design celebrate the 60th anniversary of YSL's first runway presentation with a lexicon that includes many images from the designer's extraordinary archives. Yves Saint Laurent (1936-2008) is credited with reviving French haute couture in the 1960s, with making ready-to-wear reputable, and with using non-European cultural references. In addition to the kaleidoscope of images in this book, a coterie of tastemakers have supplied listings that encompass YSL's style inspirations (C is for Costumes, as exem-plified by the Russian theme of the famed autumn-winter 1976-77 collection; T is for Tuxedo, which the designer initially referenced with his 1965 "Le Smoking") and important facets of his life (J is for Jardin Majorelle, the garden of the couturier's para-disiacal retreat in Marrakech; R is for Rive Gauche, the bohemian, chic neighborhood of Paris where the YSL boutique is situated and also the name of the house's famous perfume launched in 1970). This distillation and celebration of the designer's life reveals the inner world of a twentieth-century master.

Recently Flower Magazine featured a short article on Flair magazine and mentioned this book - The Best of Flair. decided I needed it for my design book collection and found it very reasonably priced at bellwetherbooks offering free shipping as well. Pkg arrived safely and on time. Great surprise to see this huge heavy book come with its lovely presentation box - absentmindedly I thought I'd ordered just a paperback. Box and the beautiful hardbound book inside, were untouched.
