Over seventy designs were displayed in a space recreating the interior of the SAINT LAURENT rive gauche boutique that opened on the Rue de Tournon in September 1966. By creating the first boutique selling ready-to-wear clothing by a haute couture designer, Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé accomplished a revolutionary feat.
