Célébration
Rounding out our 2008 Melbourne Spring Fashion Week tribute to Yves Saint Laurent, this is the last documentary to portray the great couturier at work.
Banned in France, director Olivier Meyrou goes behind the glamorous scenes of Yves Saint Laurent's world, to reveal a fragile, mysterious and tortured artist.
"Saint Laurent has long since become a living legend, a piece of history, who continues to inspire students of fashion all over the world. He is a unique artist whose personality and life are, however, a mystery. Behind the legend lies a bond with his partner that is strong and profound. This film was made over a period of two years of intense observation - tempered by passion, respect, distance and fascination."
