Fashion fans around the country and residents of Denver are flocking to the Denver Art Museum in anticipation for the opening of the Yves Saint Laurent: The Retrospective on March 25, 2012. Not only is Denver the only venue in the United States to feature this stunning collection, but the collection itself will leave you inspired to become a fashionista yourself. This exhibit will feature a selection of 200 haute couture garments along with numerous photographs, drawings, and films that illustrate the development of Saint Laurent’s style and the historical foundations of his work. For those of you that are fashion novices, YSL is one of the classic designers of the twentieth century. He learned the ropes under the guidance of the House of Dior where, at the age of 21, he became the head designer after Dior’s sudden death.  It’s no surprise that Denverites and fashion enthusiasts around the country are thrilled to have the opportunity to a look at some of the elegant clothing created by Yves Saint Laurent.

Make the most of this inspiring exhibit with our “The Designer” package that will make you feel like the fashionista that you are.  The package includes an overnight stay and VIP tickets that put you on the front line at the Yves St. Laurent exhibit at the Denver Art Museum. After your visit, relax and indulge in a chocolate-covered YSL amenity delivered to your room.

Rates begin at $215/night and rooms include exceptional accommodations to all visitors. For more information regarding reservations or for general inquiries please call 303.297.3111 or e-mail us at concierge@brownpalace.com.
