Yves Saint Laurent - From Darkness to Creativity | Biographical Documentary

The iconic fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent had an unhappy childhood getting bullied at school in Algeria for being different. At college in Paris, he excelled and was soon spotted by Christian Dior. When Dior died suddenly, Saint Laurent became head designer of a major fashion house at the age of 21. But initial acclaim was followed by mixed reviews, triggering self-doubt and anxiety which worsened after he was conscripted into the French army resulting in his hospitalization and treatment with shock therapy. Although he continued to battle against prejudice, bouts of illness and substance misuse he triumphed over these and launched his own successful brand. He retired in his 60s and became increasingly reclusive until his death in 2008, but he left behind a legacy of innovation, modernism and pushing at boundaries that continues to influence designers to this day.

The bad boy biography (Mauvais Garçon) by Marie-Dominique Lelièvre is interesting but not yet translated into English. The two biopics are both fairly heavy going, but I have added them to my Amazon store page if you are interested: https://www.amazon.com/shop/professor... Academic References; Henckes, N. (2016).
