	History of Fashion Designer Yves St. Laurent
		When he saw Yves St. Laurent's portfolio, he was surprised to see that this unknown young man was thinking along the same lines as the new A-line collection about to be presented by his friend Christian Dior.
		YSL presented 6 collections for Dior, although by then the staff at Dior were beginning to get a little upset at what they felt was rather a too flamboyant style for sedate Dior.
		The clothes which YSL designed were exquisitely correct for the flamboyant 60's and he was one of the first to use clothes to shock, such as his transparent dress of 1966.

		All of the famous creations from YSL's first twenty years as a couturier are featured: trapeze line dress, the smoking, safari jacket, art inspired dresses and ethnic looks.
		Many fashion historians give the impression that YSL influence faded by the end of the 1970-s, but he was in fact instrumental in creating the look of the 1980-s.
		Yves Saint-Laurent never gave his models body stockings to wear under mousseline dresses as such false modesty would defeat the purpose of celebrating a beautiful body.

		Companion piece to Teboul's "Yves Saint Laurent -- Time Regained" nicely complements that excellent film but is less riveting as a free-standing experience.
		While the film captures all the beauty of these extraordinary pieces, the details of Saint Laurent's legendarily turbulent personal life are glossed over with frustrating tact.
		May be too much Yves Saint Laurent even for those connoisseurs who can differentiate the YSL line from Dior's or Chanel's.
