Starting the 3rd of March, until the 11th of October 2020, and in partnership with Saint Laurent, the Musée Yves Saint Laurent in Paris will be hosting a special exhibition dedicated to the fashion icon Betty Catroux. The latter actually had a big role in making this possible, as she donated generously to the Fondation Pierre Bergé – Yves Saint Laurent.

We will have the chance to feast our eyes on around 50 amazing designs that Anthony Vaccarello, Saint Laurent’s artistic director, will be choosing from Betty Catrou’s wardrobe making sure to reflect perfectly the “masculine-feminine style” that she embodies in the most breathtaking way. Between the safari jacket, the jumpsuit, the trench coat, the pantsuit, and the tuxedo, we can easily see the beautiful Betty Catroux rocking these originally male designs made all so feminine by the House.     

Betty Catroux shines in the fashion world generally, and in Saint Laurent’s specifically. We’re talking about a woman who influences the House’s already amazing signature style with her charming touches! So can you imagine how out-of-this-world their exhibition will be?
