Where it came from
Published in 1988 by Schirmer/Mosel, this retrospective volume was curated to celebrate the three decades of influence Yves Saint Laurent held over the fashion industry. The book serves as a visual chronicle of his most iconic designs, capturing the evolution of his aesthetic from his early days at Dior to the establishment of his own eponymous house. It was intended as a definitive reference for the designer's contributions to haute couture and ready-to-wear, highlighting the structured elegance and avant-garde spirit that defined his career.
The monograph is notable for its comprehensive selection of photography and sketches that illustrate the designer's creative process. By focusing on the interplay between classic tailoring and modern cultural shifts, the publication documents how Saint Laurent translated high art into wearable silhouettes. Upon its release, it was regarded by fashion critics and collectors as a vital archival resource, praised for its clear presentation of Saint Laurent's legacy and the meticulous nature of his garment construction.
