ysl at the de young

and the sob craigslist posting unfortunately did not turn up a ticket to yesterdays opening symposium. due to rain, full parking lots, high heel boots, and assuming the rain would stop later my visit to the yves saint laurent exhibit at the de young was delayed by a day. this morning i rose early, started some crazy cleaning and at tim's prodding stopped to head over to the museum.

no rain today thank god and we are only a several walk block from the park and the de young, so after fueling up on a breakfast of diet pepsi max we made our way to the exhibit. mind you i had been anticipating said exhibit since tim told me about it back at the end of june, and needless to say i was not disappointed. a fabulous display of a broad range of ysl works, my only regret is not getting a photo of one of my favorite dresses the Mondrian dress from 1965.

photography even w/o flash was not allowed but i was not going to let that stop me. armed with my iphone up my jacket sleeve i shot the following "secret" photos of the exhibit.

be on the lookout for a dress done for dior and a small photo of him with his cat taken by warhol.
