A Financial Times Book of the Year: An intimate exploration of Yves Saint Laurent’s creative world, captured by photographer – and son of the couturier’s right-hand woman, Anne-Marie Muñoz – Carlos Muñoz-Yagüe.

Yves Saint Laurent: Inside Out presents an extraordinarily intimate insight into a fascinating world of creativity in the latter, sumptuous phase of Saint Laurent’s career, between 1989 and his final collection in 2002.

The book offers a comprehensive and multi-faceted exploration of the life of an haute couture house: from informal, atmospheric portraits of Yves Saint Laurent at work in his studio, drawing and creating, to the behind-the-scenes work of the ‘petites mains’ in the ateliers, the skilled army of artisans whose activity is rarely documented. The house’s world-famous models also feature, captured during pre-collection fittings in the house’s grandiose salons and in electric backstage moments before the shows.

Private archive materials – letters, documents, drawings, and ephemera – that situate the protagonists and give context to the unique position that the young Carlos enjoyed as a ‘fly on the wall’ in this rarefied universe are also included in the book, and published here for the first time.

A moving and visually stunning tribute to the iconic Yves Saint Laurent house as you’ve never seen it before, Yves Saint Laurent: Inside Outwill be a must-have for fashion and photography fans.
