Where it came from
Published in 2019 by Yale University Press, this volume serves as a comprehensive visual and academic survey of the legendary couturier's career. It was produced in conjunction with the exhibition 'Yves Saint Laurent: The Retrospective,' which aimed to catalog the evolution of the brand from its inception in 1961 to Saint Laurent's final collection in 2002. The book provides a structured look at the influence of art, theater, and street culture on his work, contextualizing his pivotal role in modernizing women’s fashion.
The book features scholarly contributions from Florence Müller, a noted fashion historian and curator who worked closely with the Fondation Pierre Bergé – Yves Saint Laurent. The design is intended to function as an authoritative archive, highlighting iconic pieces such as the Mondrian dress and the Le Smoking tuxedo through high-quality photography and archival sketches. Upon its release, the monograph was well-received by critics and industry professionals for its rigorous academic approach to analyzing Saint Laurent's complex legacy and technical precision.
