Yves Saint Laurent Inside Out

An intimate exploration of Yves Saint Laurent''s creative world, captured by photographer - and son of the couturier''s right-hand woman, Anne-Marie Munoz - Carlos Munoz-Yague. Yves Saint Laurent: Inside Out presents an extraordinarily intimate insight into a fascinating world of creativity in the latter, sumptuous phase of Saint Laurent''s career, between 1988 and his final collection in 2002. The book offers a comprehensive and multi-faceted exploration of the life of an haute couture house: from informal, atmospheric portraits of Yves Saint Laurent at work in his studio, drawing and creating, to the behind-the-scenes work of the ''petites mains'' in the ateliers, the skilled army of artisans whose activity is rarely documented. The house''s world-famous models also feature, captured during pre-collection fittings in the house''s grandiose salons and in electric backstage moments before the shows. Private archive materials - letters, documents, drawings, and ephemera - that situate the protagonists and give context to the unique position that the young Carlos enjoyed as a ''fly on the wall'' in this rarefied universe are also included in the book, and published here for the first time. A moving and visually stunning tribute to the iconic Yves Saint Laurent house as you''ve never seen it before, Yves Saint Laurent: Inside Out will be a must-have for fashion and photography fans.
