Founded in 1961 by designer Yves Saint Laurent, the maison was the first couture house to introduce the concept of luxury prêt-à-porter with the 1966 'Rive Gauche' collection, synonymous with youth and freedom. Helmed by Creative Director Anthony Vaccarello, the brand continues to push the boundaries with edgy detailing, slick silhouettes and a coveted line-up of luxury clothing, shoes, bags and accessories, now available at exclusive outlet prices.
