In 2023, the City of Lace and Fashion in Calais will highlight the work of Yves Saint Laurent, a major couturier of the 20th century, during an exhibition co-produced with the Yves Saint Laurent Museum, Paris.
By focusing on the theme of transparency, this unprecedented collaboration between the two museums reveals how the couturier was able to overturn the codes of unveiling the female body.
Through some sixty models from the collections of the Fondation Pierre Bergé – Yves Saint Laurent and the Cité de la dentelle et de la mode, supplemented by accessories, drawings, photographs and videos, the book demonstrates how Yves Saint Laurent was able to use the transparent effects of fabrics to offer a new, powerful and sensual female figure.
