Paris - YSL collection sold
Print Edition
A huge collection of haute couture and ready-to-wear fashion owned by the model who inspired Yves Saint Laurent’s famous “Le Smoking” tuxedo went under the hammer on Monday in Paris.
The collection — the biggest of its kind — included 12,000 garments and accessories and attracted interest from private collectors, museums and fashion lovers. Danielle Luquet de Saint Germain built her collection as a model and muse for Saint Laurent and later as artistic advisor at Christian Dior. “It breaks my heart to see these dresses go one after the other,” she said, explaining that she no longer had the energy to maintain the collection.
Among around 300 lots sold was a long black robe in sheer black chiffon with a band of ostrich feathers around the hips. Made in 1968, the dress fetched 119,000 euros (US$160,000), far in excess of its 13,000 to 15,000-euro estimated price.
