I am a student working on a YSL project, ‘The French and Francophone influences on YSL’s designs.

Hi Bought a little book called Yves Saint Laurent, The Album. ISBN 978-2-7118-7057-8, with a few bits in that might be of help. Page 40-41, picture of Marie Helvin in a Chinese inspired outfit, Autumn/Winter 1977 and info'about collection, including the design for Opium fragrance. Page 52 about 'Evening ensemble of Chinese inspiration'. The quote 'I've finally cracked the secret of the Imperial City where I liberate you, my aesthetic ghosts, my queens, my divas, my whirlwind parties, my inky, crepe de Chine nights,my Coromandel lacquer, my artificial lakes, and my hanging gardens.' which is from a hand written note. Good luck with your project.
