Modern Cinderella
YVES SAINT LAURENT
The protagonist of a modern day fairy tale. Citizen of the world and metropolitan warrior. She does not wear a romantic glass slipper, but this magnificent creation designed by Anthony Vaccarello for Yves Saint Laurent. A black patent leather pump, highly feminine, daring as only a woman with an Yves Saint Laurent attitude can be. Its distinguishing mark? The 11cm Opyum heel in the shape of the YSL logo created by the celebrated Adolphe Jean Marie Mouron: known under the pseudonym, Cassandre, in 1961. The unique symbol of the maison, which joins the three initials of its founder with exceptional harmony – keenly expressed – becomes the star of the shoe.
