Yves Saint Laurent, a pioneering force in the fashion industry since its inception in 1961, was the first couture house to introduce the concept of luxury prêt-à-porter with its revolutionary 'Rive Gauche' collection in 1966. This bold move not only modernized fashion but also transformed the sociocultural landscape. Acquired by the Kering Group's luxury goods division in 1999, Yves Saint Laurent continues to thrive under the creative direction of Anthony Vaccarello since April 2016. The brand remains at the pinnacle of the luxury sector, offering an exquisite range of women's and men's ready-to-wear, shoes, handbags, small leather goods, jewelry, scarves, ties, and eyewear.
