How Yves Saint Laurent's Voice Changed The World

Описание: In the world of Haute Couture, there is one collection that stands out above the rest. YSL SS1991 collection, known for its delicate beauty and understated elegance.

But what truly makes this collection unforgettable is the way Yves speaks softly through his designs. Each garment whispers a story of craftsmanship and sophistication.
From the ethereal silhouettes to the intricate beading and embroidery, every detail is meticulously crafted to perfection.

As the models glide down the runway, you can almost hear the gentle rustle of silk and chiffon, like a soft breeze on a warm summer day.
Yves Saint Laurent's SS1991 Haute Couture collection is a timeless ode to femininity and grace, a whisper of beauty that transcends the boundaries of time.

"In 1991, the haute couture shows in Paris took place in a dramatic context.
On 16th January, a fortnight before Fashion Week, the United States , the United Kingdom and France went to war against Iraq in response to its invasion of Kuwait.
Rumours flew that the shows would be cancelled, and people feared that clients and the American press would not want to travel; yet the couturiers and their workshops continued to work and the collections were presented.

The spring summer 1991 daywear was sober and classic; some referred to it as a ‘soft fashion’.
Lengths were reasonable, jackets comfortable and the whole tone of the collection was light.
The headline of the Women’s Wear Daily of 4 February ran: “ Yves speaks softly “.

Eveningwear consisted of long coats on silk gazar , a crisp and almost transparent fabric, hovering over the flowing silhouettes of a sheath dress or a trouser suit embroidered all over with pink beads.
Big floral prints by the house of Abraham were shown alongside large, wide-brimmed , natural-straw hats worn with the long-skirted dresses they Yves Saint Laurent called his “New Orleans dresses”, according to the 19 January issue of Women’s Wear Daily.
The colours were intense and all looked upbeat , as though to counterbalance the atmosphere of the time.

Two short and flared dresses , described as “baby-trapeze”, led the couturier to say, in the latter Women’s Wear Daily , ‘It reminds me of 30 years ago, when I first did it”, referring to the first collection he had designed for the Dior house in 1958.

The only tuxedo in the collection was a nod to the past- an exact replica of the one Saint Laurent himself had once worn, a three-piece with the waistcoat worn next to the skin.

The bride wore figured gazar, her brow encircled by a gold crown worthy of a queen or a warrior, a string of rock-crystal rosary beads made by the jewellers Goossens clasped in her hands…" Yves Saint Laurent Haute Couture Catwalk.
