Yves Saint Laurent Haute Couture is the definitive collector's item for devotees of the late designer. This lavish limited edition of 500 boxed sets reproduces the complete sketches, runway notes and fabric samples for every garment Saint Laurent produced during his four-decade career. In addition to 1,400 facsimile plates showcasing the most loved (and most notorious) collections, a 96-page viewing guide introduced by Pierre Berge provides an index, biography and bibliography to put Saint Laurent's work into context, and a 180-page programme album compiles programmes from all 80 runway shows. The plates and two bound volumes are packaged in four clamshell boxes, which will be shipped in a wooden box made specially for this set.
