Okay so I don't know much about Mr Yves Saint-Laurent since he retired like in 2002, and back then I only knew of Prada and Ferragamo and Fendi and Gucci and whatever else that my mum used. I do know though that he is the father of androgynous power suits, or what he named "Le Smoking".

This picture, shot in 1975, would not at all look out of place in like this month's edition of Vogue, if you ask me. To create something that influences fashion even 40years later, surely he's damn fierce.

(Apparently he also popularized the whole idea of ready-to-wear and was the first designer to use black models!)
