YSL and Jean Charles de CastelbajacA year after Yves Saint Laurent debuted his Mondrian-inspired shift dresses, the designer continued his appropriation of art into fashion with his Fall/Winter 1966-67 “Pop Art” dresses. This crop of dresses featured fragmented silhouettes of the female figure printed atop columnar shaped gowns, perhaps suggesting the nude body beneath the cloth. For Jean Charles de Castelbajac’s SS 2014 show, the designer would feature a dress with an uncanny resemblance to YSL’s 1966 version.
