PARIS, Jan 29 — Tucked away like Easter eggs in the most prestigious Paris museums, a unique commemoration of designer Yves Saint Laurent cements his status among the greats of French cultural history.

The Louvre is one of six museums taking part in the unique collaboration to mark 60 years since the designer’s first catwalk show, when he was 26. Saint Laurent was often ahead of the game: his Mondrian collection came out to rave reviews in 1965, four years before the Dutch artist, who died in 1944, had his first career retrospective at the Orangerie Museum.

As early as 1983, barely two decades after his first show, he became the first living designer to have his work presented in a major art institution — at the Metropolitan Museum in New York.“The house has already done so many anniversaries. I wanted to do something different,” said Madison Cox, president of the Pierre Berge-Yves Saint Laurent Foundation.
