The Life + Art of Yves Saint Laurent

On Monday, May 2, 2011, New York's MoMA [Museum of Modern Art] had a screening of director Pierre Thoretton’s documentary on Yves Saint Laurent, “L’Amour Fou.” The documentary chronicles the life of Yves Saint Laurent through the eyes of Pierre Berge, his partner of 50 years.

Rapper/Actress Eve attended the screening and described the documentary as,

"So incredible, beautiful, sad, inspiring. If you love fashion, def check it out!!" - Eve

After the screening, a tribute party was hosted by designer Vera Wang in her home with a Marekesh meets Manhattan theme. Yves Saint Laurent’s love of Morocco was reflected in the menu from chef Todd English and the decor.



The documentary officially opens in NYC on May 13, 2011 and LA on May 20, as well as select cities nationwide. Check out the trailer below.
