Catalogue preface - Pictures gallery

The Foundation's 7th exhibition, théâtre, cinéma, music-hall, ballet, concentrates on a lesser-known facet of Yves Saint Laurent's work and presents the couturier's creations for the stage ans screen and for legendary performers. Performers like Catherine Deneuve in Belle de Jour, Arletty in Les monsters sacrés, Anny Duperey in Alain Resnais' Stavisky, Isabelle Adjani in Subway, or Geneviève Page in the 1978 stage production of L'Aigle à deux têtes. A close friends of Zizi Jeanmaire and Roland Petit, he signed the sets ans costumes for Champagne rosé, for the famous feather dress show, for Notre-Dame at the Paris Opera and for Cyrano de Bergerac as early as 1959. All these great moments from stage history are brought back to life through 17 dresses, film extracts, photographs and original sketches presented for the first time.
