All Saints Mens BeltsYves Saint Laurent - Iconic Fashion Designs

Yves Henri Donat Mathieu Saint Laurent, known by the name of Yves Saint Laurent, has long been an icon of fashion. The French designer born in Algeria, but moved to Paris right after high school to chase his dream of establishing a career in fashion. His efforts soon paid off very early at the age of 17, he won the post of assistant by Christian Dior himself. The unfortunate death of Dior four years later opened the doors of St. Lawrence, because he was appointed head of the empire Dior ignored. With great experience to his name, Saint Laurent started his own fashion empire in 1962.

Saint Laurent is revered as one of the most influential designers and important ever. In fact, it was actually the one who popularized the use of trousers for women at a time when pants were considered for men only.

Enter the 60s, and St. Lawrence has been the use of both transparent and metallic fabrics in his own collection. For this reason, Saint Laurent was strongly associated with what was and is still known as Swinging Sixties look. Its see-through blouse became the thing all over the world at the time. In the 70s, Saint Laurent took his tail ethnic costumes and set up the so-called high light peasants. This look included safari jackets for men and women.

But if there is a major contribution on the track at St. Lawrence has its name, is the fact that he was the very first designer to have black models participate in fairs on the track. He has also designed clothes for many big names in the industry, like Loulou de la Falaise, Betty Catroux, Talitha Pol-Getty, Catherine Deneuve, and Katoucha Niane.

Apart from clothing emblematic Saint Laurent designed, it also has a number of perfumes in his belt. These include Y released in 1964, Rive Gauche in 1971, opium in 1978, Paris in 1983, Champagne 1993, which was renamed Yvresse in 1996, Opium for men in 1996, Baby Doll 1999 and Nu in 2001.
