SAINT LAURENT RIVE GAUCHE is the name of the Maison’s prêt-à-porter (ready-to-wear) line and boutique, launched in Paris, France, in 1966 by Yves Saint Laurent, Pierre Bergé, and others. In September 1966, it opened a store on Paris’s Left Bank, symbolizing the trend of couture houses moving in earnest into ready-to-wear. The Maison’s prêt-à-porter was later renamed “Saint Laurent Paris” in 2012, and the Rive Gauche name is no longer used for a current line.
