The Luxurious Life of Jet Setter, Yves Saint Laurent

Yves Henri Donat Mathieu-Saint-Laurent was a French designer born in Algeria in 1936. He struggled with some of his earlier years while he attended school. He would often get made fun of by the other boys because of the clothes that he wore. Before he started designing professionally he even created dresses for his two younger sisters. When he was only eighteen years of age, he moved to Paris to attend fashion school. This was an extremely important move for Laurent because it allowed him to show case and share his talents.
