Storytelling
The aim of this website is to tell the story of Yves Saint Laurent’s career and how he came to be one of the most influential designers of the 20th Century. Throughout his whole career, Saint Laurent has launched multiple collections inspired by different artists from diverse artistic backgrounds, eras and movements and some of the most iconic collections that he launched are portrayed in this project. Thus, the title of the website «L’art en Mouvement».
The website was developed completely through code with the programming languages: HTML, CSS and JavaScript. However, I first developed a prototype in Figma in order to lay out everything that I wanted to include in the website before starting coding.
The website is distributed in three different chapters:
- The Origin of Yves: in which I explain the early years of Yves’ life and career and how he came to be interested in fashion altogether.
- Yves’ Inspiration: the different eras and homages that he rendered throughout his career. This chapter has four parts:
- A Theatrical Revelation
- An Homage to Piet Mondrian
- Pop Art & Haute Couture
- Other Sources of Inspiration
- Yves’ Legacy: In this last chapter we see Yves’ through the eyes of the people who got to know and work with him and how that had an impact in their personal and professional lives.
