ABOUT

From the high of an extraordinary runway show celebrating France’s 1998 World Cup win to fittings with his muse and friend Laetitia Casta, Olivier Myron’s “Celebration” offers a rare, behind-the-scenes look of Yves Saint Laurent’s last few years of genius at the helm of his self-made fashion behemoth, before his exit from the house in 2002. Celebration culminates in a landmark fashion show at the Centre Pompidou in 2002, a touching and personal moment for everyone that strove to make the legendary fashion house a household name. Meyrou’s film also offers an introduction to personalities instrumental to the success of the iconic house, including Monette, Loulou de la Falaise, Betty Catroux, Monsieur Jean-Pierre and Dominique Deroche.
