Paris is the place to be early next year for fans of Yves Saint Laurent. On the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the designer's first fashion show, retrospectives of his work will go on display in six Parisian museums.

It's an ambitious programme of exhibitions that will revisit the work of the great couturier born in Oran.
