In photos: Yves Saint Laurent at the Denver Art Museum

Yves Saint Laurent—over more than 50 years—dressed the world’s most beautiful women, changed societal norms, and stunned practically everyone with ground-breaking, jaw-dropping, amazingly beautiful haute couture. And this week, it’s Denver’s turn to play dress up in the imagination and luxury of YSL.

On March 25, the Denver Art Museum will unveil Yves Saint Laurent: The Retrospective, a stunning exhibit that at its core asks “Is fashion art?” And while the answer is subjective, there is no denying that the massive collection is a masterpiece. Here, photos of some of our favorite designs.
