Abrams, … more Debut Yves Saint Laurent 1962; Photographs by Pierre Boulat; Text by Laurence Benaim; Captions by Pierre Berge; Harry N. Abrams, Inc., Publishers, New York, 2002. First printing. From the blurb for the last forty years, Yves Saint Laurent has reigned as one of the most influential and brilliantly inspired couturiers of out time. Since Saint Laurent left his position as designer at the House of Dior to open his own fashion house in 1962 at age 25, his dramatic designs, emphasizing the body and a seductive elegance, have completely revolutionized women s fashion. Yves Saint Laurent was the talk of le tout Paris when he launched his signature collection in 1962, and this book captures the young fashion star on the rise. This behind-the-scenes look at Saint Laurent s first year as an independent designer features outstanding photographs by Life photographer Pierre Boulat, many of which have never been seen before. Elegant black & white photographs evoke the era and the excitement of a crash schedule of sketching, draping, casting, and fitting. 125 pages less
