About

Discover the World of Haute Couture

Step inside the Musée Yves Saint Laurent Paris for an exclusive morning experience. This guided tour offers visitors an opportunity to explore the museum during quiet hours, before it opens to general audiences. Located in the former couture house, the museum provides a rich introduction to the creative legacy of Yves Saint Laurent, one of the most influential designers of the twentieth century.

The museum’s carefully curated exhibitions provide insights into the process of creating a couture collection, including mood boards, fabric selections and details on tailoring techniques.

Step into the workspace where some of fashion’s most iconic designs took shape, and learn how inspiration and creativity were transformed into runway reality. The studio, maintained as the designer left it, reveals personal artifacts and the creative atmosphere of a 16th arrondissement mansion that served as both a workplace and a sanctuary for imagination.

Your tour grants access to the museum’s rotating exhibitions, which spotlight pivotal themes, collections or collaborations from Yves Saint Laurent’s career. The guide offers commentary on the significance and background of select pieces, providing historical and cultural context that brings the displays to life.
