Yves St. Laurent Comics
Yves St. Laurent was a true genius, as you can see for yourself in exquisite detail if you make a pilgrimage to the new retrospective currently in Montreal and upcoming in San Francisco.
What most people don't realize, however, is that YSL's inspiration went beyond clothing. He also wrote and drew a graphic novel.
St. Laurent's La Vilaine Lulu was "a humorous but pointed portrait of the world of fashion," excerpts from which are available on the website of Pierre Berge's YSL foundation. To see more excerpts, go to the Foundation website and scroll through the "Secrets" section of 1962-1970.
The Women's Wear Daily obit also features a revealing excerpt:
Saint Laurent often said he wanted to write his autobiography and continually referred to his frustration at not being able to complete it.
The closest he came was with the publication of his book, “La Vilaine Lulu,†in 1967. It recounted the adventures of Nasty Lulu, a cartoon character he had been doodling for some 10 years. Lulu, a squat, sadistic little girl, was in some ways, Saint Laurent’s alter ego, saying and doing what he dared not. Nasty Lulu once said, for example: “I roar with laughter when all those females, the faithful, the content, the fanatics of fashion, the blue-stockings, the journalists, come to scratch the nape of his neck and murmur with beatitude: ‘My Yves.’ They whisper to him, flutter around him, and he says nothing. If I weren’t to be a comic, there would be a lot to say on the psychological level about that shy bird, that myopic being who, behind those eyeglasses like television screens, is never snowed. He immediately detects in another what is true, what is crucial.â€
