1988
A Collection Paying Tribute to Artists

For his Spring-Summer 1988 collection, Yves Saint Laurent paid tribute to Vincent Van Gogh by recreating his paintings Irises and Sunflowers on jackets embroidered by the Maison Lesage. The couturier created so many nuances and details in the flowers that each jacket required over six hundred hours of work, making them some of the most expensive pieces in the world.
