Yves Saint Laurent Materials Research and Development Intern - Footwear
Founded in 1961, Yves Saint Laurent was the first fashion house to introduce the concept of luxury prêt-à-porter with the launch of the 'Rive Gauche' line in 1966, symbolizing youth and freedom. This marked a crucial step in the modernization of fashion and revolutionized the socio-cultural landscape. Acquired by Kering's luxury division in 1999, Yves Saint Laurent, under the creative direction of Anthony Vaccarello since April 2016, continues to be a leader in the luxury universe. Today, Saint Laurent collections include women's and men's prêt-à-porter, shoes, bags, small leather goods, jewelry, scarves, ties, and eyewear.
