Yves Saint Laurent, which last featured in Couture with the namesake designer in charge before he retired, returns to the vaunted world of high fashion after more than a decade, this time round with Hedi Slimane at the helm. The designer, whose creations have turned around the fortunes of the French fashion house, has not yet confirmed whether it will show on the Haute Couture Week schedule again, or just create bespoke creations privately, but has revealed the offerings will include both womens and menswear.
Yves Saint Laurent's new Couture House located at "24 rue de l’Université" in Saint-Germain-des-Prés is accompanied by a set of campaign images photographed by Hedi Slimane.
The Saint Laurent Couture Campaign was shot in the new Couture Houseof Yves Saint Laurent. Renovated by Hedi during the last 3 years, the design follows French 18C period elements and principles of architecture. The couture house is named "Hôtel de Sénecterre" and was originally built in 1685 by architect Thomas Gobert. Thomas Gorbert was the building planner of the King of France, Louis XIV.
The Yves Saint Laurent new Couture House is located at "24 Rue de L'universite" in Saint-Germain-des-Pres. "5 Avenue Marceau" was the last Couture House of Yves Saint Laurent and became "La Fondaion Pierre Berge-Yves Saint Laurent".
