SAINT LAURENT Store Director

Summary
ABOUT SAINT LAURENT

Founded in ‎1961, Yves Saint Laurent was the first couture house to introduce
the concept of luxury pret-a-porter in a ‎1966 collection called 'Rive Gauche',
synonymous with youth and freedom. This shift represented a first critical
step in the modernization of fashion and revolutionized the socio-cultural
landscape.
In ‎1999, the luxury goods division of the Kering Group acquired Yves Saint
Laurent and, under the creative direction of Anthony Vaccarello since April
‎2016, continues to position the house at the summit of the luxury universe.
Today, Saint Laurent collections include women's and men's ready-to-wear,
shoes, handbags, small leather goods, jewelry, scarves, ties and eyewear.
