The recent biopic has done much to raise interest in the man, the myth and the legend that is Yves Saint Laurent. And now there’s an eponymous tome to fan the flame, written by Roxanne Lowit and with a foreword by Pierre Berge, the designer’s business partner and lover. His former muses, including the blonde-haired 1970s icon Betty Catroux also contribute. And don’t worry if you’re dyslexic (like the majority of Team Ten), the book is full of pictures for you to feast your fashion-hungry eyes on. Out now.
