The French fashion giant had a long love affair with film, including his biggest fan Catherine Deneuve whom he called his "muse". YSL dressed her for the films Belle De Jour (1967), La Chamade (1968), La Sirène du Mississipi (1969), Un Flic (1972), Liza (1972), and The Hunger (1983). He also was the costume designer for films featuring Jean Seberg, Claudia Cardinale, Capucine and Leslie Caron. He had two documentaries done on him and his business by David Teboul: Yves Saint Laurent: His Life and Times and Yves Saint Laurent 5 avenue Marceau 75116 Paris.

Carl Icahn Now Wants ALL Of Lionsgate
Words fail. The world has lost a visionary and a true gentleman.
The docs on YSL are must viewing about the struggles artists go through to achieve their works. The docs are also extremely entertaining. There’s a wonderful clip of Catherine Deneuve trying on clothes.
The world has a lost a great artist and a gentleman who had style. He will be missed.
YSL was and will always remain an icon. Thank you for what you did for womens’ fashion and for Opium.
I started wearing Opium when I was 14 years old, despite the contrast between the ultra sophisticated scent and my geeky adolescent awkwardness. It made me feel special. I still wear it today at 40.
Au revoir, Monsieur.
Great Tradegy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So many crap designers nowadays. At least you kicked ass and taught many young designers and the world your extraordinary talent. God Bless!!!
