the last 50 years have belonged to Yves Saint Laurent and Karl Lagerfeld

If you’re young and eager to break into the fashion industry, this compilation of success stories from the best of fashion’s best is an inspiring read. It features everyone from Teen Vogue editor-in-chief Amy Astley to Anna to Karl.The 1970s might have belonged to Halston, but the last 50 years have belonged to Yves Saint Laurent and Karl Lagerfeld. Drake, one of the best fashion writers out there–in my humble opinion–captures the long battle between the two legendary designers, from their first competition 1955 for the Woolmark prize, to their entangled personal lives in the 1970s. Lagerfeld even sued Drake in 2006 for revealing elements of his private life to the public. Now, if that doesn’t make you want to read it, nothing will.
