Sketches of the week...




My friend Madame Couture inspired me to do a weekly update on one particular person, place, or thing. This week, I will show you two sketches made by Yves Saint Laurent himself.
Yves Saint Laurent was born on 1936 in Oran, Algeria. His first fashion prize was won in 1954 because of a beautiful coctail dress he had made. He introduced a trapeze dress for Dior in 1957. After that, he opened his own Yves Saint Laurent shop in 1960. To read more about his biography, go to http://www.infomat.com/whoswho/yvessaintlaurent.html   . Thanks- Miss Vintage.
Also, Above is a picture of the world famous cocktail dresses and some other very pretty couture.
