About Saint Laurent
Saint Laurent is the Paris house Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé founded in 1961, and it showed its first couture collection on 29 January 1962. The interlocking YSL monogram, the Cassandre, was drawn for the house by the poster artist A. M. Cassandre in 1961. In 1966 Yves Saint Laurent put women in Le Smoking, the first tuxedo cut for a woman, and opened Saint Laurent Rive Gauche, the ready-to-wear boutique on the Left Bank. The house has been part of Gucci Group, now Kering, since 1999, and Anthony Vaccarello has been its creative director since 2016. The tuxedo, the sharp shoulder, sheer black lace, the stiletto and the Cassandre are still the codes he works with.
“Gold Cassandre, clean leather, and nothing else to explain.”
