Visiting the Y. ST LAURENT museum a little aside, before the public and with a guide filled with admiration for Yves St Laurent, allows you to understand the creator and his benevolence towards small hands and their work of such finesse, such precision but also the creative and empathetic man that he was. Being there before the opening to the public gives the possibility of really being at the heart of the life of the creator and of the man.
