By Tom Ford, leather shoulder bag with braided handles.

In the sixties and seventies, the maison introduced pieces destined to become iconic, such as the famous Le Smoking women's tuxedo, the safari jacket, the pantsuit, and the elegant jumpsuit, reinterpreting menswear with a new sensibility and contributing to women's empowerment through fashion.

In parallel, the Rive Gauche line, launched in 1966, represented an epochal turning point in luxury prêt-à-porter, making the maison's creations accessible to a wider audience without compromising quality and style.

The creative universe of Yves Saint Laurent draws inspiration from art, literature, and travel. Famous are the collections dedicated to Piet Mondrian, Pablo Picasso, and Henri Matisse, which testify to the profound dialogue between haute couture and artistic culture. The use of color, essential lines, and impeccable tailoring becomes the maison's distinctive signature.

In 1999, the brand became part of the Gucci Group, and the creative direction of prêt-à-porter was entrusted to Tom Ford, who reinterpreted the Saint Laurent heritage with a sensual and glamorous aesthetic.
