It was in 1966 that Yves Saint Laurent shook things up by having a woman walk the runway in a tuxedo for the first time. This bold move forever changed fashion and the role of clothing in women's empowerment. Fifty-nine years later, the Salon du Vintage Paris celebrates this groundbreaking act with a unique retrospective.

The Power of Femininity, by Yves Saint Laurent
Under the passionate gaze of Anouschka, collector and curator of the exhibition, the Silhouettes of Power exhibition traces thirty-five years of creations, from 1966 to 2001. Structured jackets, perfectly tailored pants, playful textures, and sculptural silhouettes: the YSL tuxedo is presented in all its forms, like a manifesto of elegance and confidence.
Bridging modernity and heritage, this rare exhibition immerses visitors in the creator's universe, where black becomes light and tailoring transforms into a suit of power. A vibrant tribute to the vision of a man who made clothing a tool of freedom.
