Inside Yves Saint Laurent’s final couture years

Covering 1989 through Yves Saint Laurent’s last collection in 2002, this photographic volume maps the interdependent work behind a major haute couture house. Carlos Muñoz Yagüe’s images move between Saint Laurent drawing in the studio, the ateliers where petites mains carry out specialized craft, fittings with models, and the activity surrounding runway presentations. The book’s stated scope gives unusual weight to the often less-documented labor of the house’s artisans, placing design, construction, fitting, and presentation in the same visual record. With 392 pages, it offers an extended photographic view of Saint Laurent’s late-career creative environment.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Fashion-photography enthusiasts
  • Readers interested in haute couture ateliers and garment making
  • Yves Saint Laurent followers, especially those interested in his later career

Book overview

Yves Saint Laurent: Inside Out presents an extraordinarily intimate look into the fascinating world of creativity in the latter, sumptuous phase of Yves Saint Laurent's career, between 1989 and his final collection in 2002.

The volume offers a comprehensive and multifaceted exploration of the life of an haute couture house: from informal, atmospheric portraits of Saint Laurent at work in his studio, drawing and creating, to the behind-the-scenes work of the "petites mains" in the ateliers, the skilled army of artisans whose activity is rarely documented. World-famous models also feature, captured during pre-collection fittings in the house's grandiose salons and in electric backstage moments before the shows.
