Yves Saint Laurent Icons of Fashion Design, acclaimed by the critics as an intoxicating book remains the most attractive homage to the uncrowned king of haute couture. Pictures taken by the world's leading fashion photographers trace the success of Saint Laurent's designs, which, since conquering the fashion world five decades ago, have caused sensation after sensation each year. The book also constitutes a high-quality review of fashion photography over a period of forty years, collecting 135 YSL dresses in images created by fashion photography's greatest 20th century heroes. Yves Saint Laurent was equipped with an infallible instinct for reading the aesthetic signs of the times, and this enabled him to have a profound effect on fashion in the second half of the 20th century.

About the Author:
Marguerite Duras (1914 1996), like Yves Saint Laurent a national idol in France, achieved fame in the 1960s with the novel Moderato Cantabile and the screenplay Hiroshima mon amour, becoming a leading representative of the Nouveau Roman. Her bestselling novel L'Amant made her the most widely read author of the 1980s in France. In the essay she wrote in 1987 for our book she describes the aura of personal enchantment that surrounded Yves Saint Laurent and permeated his creations.

Book Description Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Yves Saint Laurent (1936-2008) war zweifellos der berühmteste, auch erfolgreichste Modedesigner des 20. Jahrhunderts.

Unser 1988 erstmals erschienener Prachtband, eine vom Meister persönlich autorisierte Produktion unseres Hauses, ist nach wie vor das schönste YSL-Buch, das es je gegeben hat. Es erscheint zur Feier des 60. Jubiläums des Hauses YSL, das im Sommer 1961 gegründet wurde. 232 pp. Englisch, Deutsch. Seller Inventory # 9783829604710
