The Vintage Yves Saint Laurent Edit
We've partnered with the International Center of Photography on a special selection to celebrate their newest exhibition, Yves Saint Laurent and Photography, which takes fashion lovers behind the scenes of the iconic house through nearly 300 iconic photographs, contact sheets, campaign materials, and archival objects.
Inspired By Photography
Over four decades, Yves Saint Laurent forged one of fashion's most powerful relationships with photography. The designer utilized photography not only as a promotional tool, but as a creative force.
Richard Avedon, Helmut Newton, Annie Leibovitz, Irving Penn, Guy Bourdin, Andy Warhol—the defining image-makers of the twentieth century—all turned their lens on Yves Saint Laurent, and what they created together became the blueprint for how fashion is visualized to this day.
Our exclusive selection of vintage Yves Saint Laurent pieces honors this legacy, with pieces ranging from handpicked power suits and tailored jackets to jewel-tone dresses, textural tops, and (of course) Mombasa bags.
