About The Brand

French fashion designer, Yves Henri Donat Mathieu-Saint-Laurent, submitted three sketches to a 1953 contest for young fashion designers organised by the International Wool Secretariat. After studying Saint-Laurent joined Dior. Although Dior recognised his talent immediately, Saint- Laurent spent his first year on mundane tasks, such as decorating the studio and designing accessories. Eventually, however, he was allowed to submit sketches for the couture collection. With every passing season, more of his sketches were accepted by Dior. In August 1957, Dior chose Saint Laurent to succeed him as a designer. Saint Laurent also started mainstreaming the idea of wearing silhouettes from the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s. Yves Saint Laurent brought in new changes to the fashion industry in the 60s and the 70s. The French designer opened his Pret-a-Porter House YSL Rive Gauche in 1967 where he was starting to shift his focus from Haute Couture to Ready-to-wear. Saint Laurent won first place. Yves Saint Laurent can be credited with both spurring the couture's rise from its 1960s ashes and with finally rendering ready-to-wear reputable. He was able to adapt his style to accommodate the changes in fashion during that period. He approached fashion from a different perspective by wanting women to look comfortable yet elegant at the same time.
