Paris

At the former house of Yves Saint Laurent, the foundation, named for the late couturier and his personal and professional partner, exhibitions cover an unusually wide range of subjects, from the rock ’n’ roll photography of Saint Laurent’s current designer, Hedi Slimane, to a historical look at Saint Laurent’s scandalous and historic spring 1971 haute couture collection. Though the foundation is responsible for the conservation of thousands of garments, accessories and sketches from the Saint Laurent archives, larger retrospectives tend to be put on outside the foundation at larger spaces, like the 2010 show at the Petit Palais.
