Until his death half century later he remained a dominant² figure in fashionthough with an increasingly difficult private life. This year sees two feature films releasedabout Yves Saint Laurent’s life and career. Our arts correspondent Vincent Dowd has been tosee the first. “ ‘Don’t you think you are too young?’ In 1957 it was an obvious question withChristian Dior dead and Yves Saint Laurent suddenly running a famous fashion house.” “I’m JalilLespert, director of Yves Saint Laurent. He had a kind of revolutionary vision of fashion andwoman. He had a kind of purity.” “At first, Saint Laurent maintained many Dior traditions inFrance and elsewhere. But Yves could see the rebel spirit of 1960s would change women’sfashion.” “He really gave freedom and power to women by creating masterpieces, giving themthe power with new dresses, with trousers. He was a genius.”
