YSL Sale Sets New Record | The sale of Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé's vast art collection has ended and the final sales tally is in. All told, the Christie's event took in $484.6 million, making it the biggest private art auction in history. If you missed the action in Paris and you're a bit bummed about it, do note that Bergé says he now plans to sell Saint Laurent's former apartment on Rue de Babylone. You couldn't find a pied-à-terre in Paris with a more impressive pedigree if you tried! [WWD]
