Full of beautiful and fascinating inserts, this book invites you
to discover the life and work of Yves Saint Laurent, the most
celebrated couturier and a genius who used his talents to serve women. The central themes of his career are explored: his beginnings at Christian Dior, the launch
of the tuxedo, his tribute collections to artists and writers,
his costumes for the theatre, the personal greeting cards he
designed, and the exhibitions and spectacularly staged public
couture shows devoted to his creations.

The book also tells the story of the unique relationship
between Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé, the couture house
they created in 1961, which rapidly became an empire, and the
remarkable private art collection they amassed over the years.

All About Yves contains a wealth of images and many facsimiles
of previously unpublished documents, including letters, original
sketches and contact sheets, giving a comprehensive overview of
the life and achievements of one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century.
