Dressed by Yves Saint Laurent

“The legendary couture designer Yves Saint Laurent (1936-2008) was acutely aware of just how intense the relationship between clothing and camera can be. In many ways, his understanding of garment as image, expressed through his collaboration with dozens of the greatest fashion photographers, set the framework for a whole industry. In conjunction with the major summer exhibition Yves Saint Laurent and Photography at the International Center of Photography (ICP), Dressed by Yves Saint Laurent showcases the best of Saint Laurent’s remarkable costume work for cinema. His genius for understated style and unexpected detail suited artfully disruptive and visually seductive directors such as Luis Buñuel, Alain Resnais, Luchino Visconti, and Tony Scott.” —David Campany, Creative Director, International Center of Photography
