Yves Saint Laurent

Biopic taking a look at the life of famous French fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent, from the beginning of his career when he met his lover and business partner Pierre Berge.

On the early death of Christian Dior, the career of one of the greatest names in fashion history was launched when Yves Saint Laurent became the head of design at the House of Dior and his spring collection of 1958 saved the house from financial ruin. This film gives a tender insight into the man behind the fashion and his lifelong relationship with his partner Pierre Berge.
