The world famous fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent, whose biography represents the path from success to success, was, as they say, the darling of fate.
In the field of design, he reached the top.
A brilliant provincial, almost everything is known about the king and the trendsetter.
The "singer of femininity", the founder of the unisex style whatever titles were awarded for his brilliant century, Yves Saint Laurent, whose biography began in 1936 and ended in 2008.
The future fashion designer was born in the city of Oran (Algeria, then a colony of France), in an aristocratic family.
But, most importantly, it was dominated by respectful, friendly relations.
Yves Saint Laurent was surrounded by love and friendliness from the earliest years.
The biography of the great master shows that even further in life he had immeasurably more friends than enemies.
The violator of family traditions From generation to generation in the family of Laurent, men held legal positions, and, of course, the same path was expected for little Yves, who loved to draw in general more than anything else in the world, and in particular to invent and embody in colors outfits for dolls of two younger sisters.
The mother managed to see something in her son's drawings, supported this hobby in every possible way, and after graduating from school in Oran, they left together in 1953 for Paris.
Without giving himself time to get acquainted with the delights of metropolitan life, the future couturier enters a school created by a High Fashion Syndicate.
He attends the haute couture courses more than willingly, here he also learns and gets the opportunity to participate in a competition organized by the International Wool Syndicate.
Favorite of the muses Isnot it amazing luck when a 17 year old boy in the world fashion capital takes first place in a responsible competition?
The little black afternoon dress or cocktail dress, which has become one of the business cards of the fashion genius, was created by him exactly then, in 1953.
Yves Saint Laurent, whose biography is full of wonderful coincidences, from this fateful moment becomes famous in the fashion world.
A laudatory article about him appears in the magazine "Vok", which is accompanied by sketches of a young provincial.
The aspiring fashion designer sent three sketches to the competition, which won the jury.
Two years later, Laurent takes part in another competition - "Woolmark".
And here his works are awarded the first prize, but he shares it with another young genius - Karl Lagerfeld.
Some researchers of Laurent's life and work believe that it was from this moment that the friendship and rivalry between the two great trendsetters of the world fashion began.
Perhaps, thanks to this competition, both of them have reached Olympic heights in their field.
The beginning of a brilliant career After this event, Christian Dior himself invites Laurent to his famous "House of Dior", where Yves Saint Laurent worked during 1955-1957.
The biography, personal life, and creativity of a young person become interesting to the general public.
Fans and connoisseurs of high fashion are beginning to closely follow his success.
Dior makes him his assistant.
Their cooperation was very fruitful, despite the fact that the owner of the "House of Dior" was more focused on middle - aged women, and Laurent on young people.
In 1957, Dior suddenly dies, and Laurent at the age of 21 becomes the director of the famous brand.
In 1958, his first collection "Trapeze" was released, which made a splash in the fashion world.
Short A line dresses have received many approvals.
"Sensual elegance" - this is how the press dubbed the new style, the author of which was Yves Saint Laurent.
Biography, photos, details of intimate life do not leave the pages of newspapers.
Black stripe But there were also difficult moments in the life of the trendsetter.
The horrors of the war, the delicate mental organization of Laurent, who dealt with refined beauty, could not stand it.
The doctors of the mental department of the military hospital treated the strongest mental disorder with tranquilizers and shock therapy.
At the same time, another person is illegally appointed to the post of director of the "House of Dior".
Laurent starts and wins the lawsuit.
He is paid a penalty of 700,000 francs.
The victory over the offenders did not bring the couturier out of a deep mental depression.
Once again, Pierre Berger came to the rescue, with the help of which in 1961, with the money of the American billionaire Mark Robins, "Yves Saint Laurent" opens, the full owner of which becomes Yves Saint Laurent.
The biography of the great couturier did not end with suicide, attempts of which were made repeatedly.
From this moment, Yves Saint Laurent begins a new life full of creative success – he tirelessly comes up with new styles that go against the prevailing trends.
The press calls him a fashion anarchist.
He undertakes bold experiments – girls with dark skin appear among the models, Laurent introduces women's pantsuits, safari jackets and transparent dresses into fashion.
New heights and well deserved recognition of the brand " YSL "became arch popular, and in 1964 he released a perfume called "Y".
Women's tuxedos, which he introduced into fashion in 1966, become another of his business cards.
Then the awards fell one after another, and the empire of Yves Saint Laurent becomes huge, captures all new industries.
The collection in camouflage style, released by him at the height of the Vietnam War, brought the author of the first "Oscar" and international recognition.
The dandy style introduced by him and the women's perfume "Opium" raise Laurent to an unattainable height – he is the only one of all fashion designers whose works were devoted to a lifetime exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum, which was followed in 1985 by another Oscar, this time for successful and long term work in the fashion world.
His muses were Catherine Deneuve and Maya Plisetskaya.
The great designer said goodbye to the fashion world in 2002.
His latest collection was shown on the stage of the Pompidou Center.
Before he reached his 72nd birthday, the great Yves Saint Laurent died in 2008, his biography, personal life, photos of which, like his famous collections, are widely available.
In the photo below, the designer is captured with two of his muses.
Summing up the results of a rich and successful career of the designer can serve as his famous phrase that in this life he only regrets that he did not invent jeans.
