Farewell, then, Yves Saint Laurent. I was lucky enough to see some of his couture shows but anyone who has ever stepped out in a sheer blouse, a tuxedo suit or a peasant top has reason to remember him - the man did invent modern fashion, after all. His greatest hits are still an inspiration today: take a look at this season's swim, for example.
Left to right: get the Safari look (1966) with Mimi Holliday's khaki bikini; look back to Saint Laurent's Mondrian collection (1965) with Princesse Tam-Tam's graphic one-piece; celebrate the peasant/hippy influence (1970s) with Ondademar's stripy triangle set.
