Yves Saint Laurent Fashion Book

December 20, 2014 By Shelley Zurek 72 Comments

Yves Saint Laurent by Roxanne Lowitt

Yves Saint Laurent

 

YVES SAINT LAURENT

($50.00 hardcover, 9780500517604) is a dazzling portrait of the designer and his world of fashion over the last 25 years of his career by legendary backstage fashion photography pioneer Roxanne Lowit.

The subject intrigued me because he defined the 1970s in terms of cool cutting edge fashion. An accomplishment I particularly admired is that he:

He revolutionized women’s evening wear when he introduced le smoking, a woman’s tuxedo, and made couture accessible to a younger generation. ~ From Thames & Hudson website. 

Update: THis Yves Saint Laurent Fashion book past was originally a giveaway. The Rafflecopter entry device has been removed and had 341 entries. See Giveaway Winners.

    I don’t know much about Yves Saint Laurent so I would be interested in learning more. I love to learn, it doesn’t matter what it’s about. I’m most intrigued by his pioneering of backstage fashion photography.
