"Dior taught me more than just fashion and design, he taught me to love the fundamental nobility of couture as a métier."

Wow. Wow. Wow. This was truly a feast for the eyes. Seeing so many Yves Saint Laurent designs for Dior, other than from the "Trapeze" line, was amazing. Especially the simplicity of the final dress shown in the book: "Chat noir," from his final collection with Dior. It's especially intriguing to see YSL's design codes, so many of which he'd revisit throughout his career, in their nascent stages.
