YVES SAINT LAURENT

Yves Saint Laurent, founded in 1961 by designer Yves Saint Laurent with his partner and industrialist Pierre Bergé, emerged from Saint Laurent's short but impressive career at Christian Dior.

​

Saint Laurent, a fashion prodigy, moved to Paris at 17 and quickly caught Dior's attention. Rising through the ranks, he became Dior's lead designer at just 21 following Dior's sudden death in 1957.

​

His 1958 spring collection for Dior was a financial success, but a later disastrous collection led to the head of Dior requesting his conscription to the Army, from which until now he'd been protected. After a brief, traumatic military stint, Saint Laurent was fired from Dior while hospitalized.

​

Following a successful lawsuit against Dior, Saint Laurent established his own fashion house with Bergé, marking the beginning of a new era in fashion.
