Yves Saint Laurent designer?

When did Yves Saint Laurent first use african american models in his runway shows? I need this for work . asap pleasee =]|||I believe he first did in 1967.





Mounia, Yves Saint Laurent鈥檚 prot茅g茅 was one of the first black super models on the international runway.





Le boom des mannequins noirs en Europe fut catalys茅 par le fameux d茅fil茅 de bienfaisance organis茅 au ch芒teau de Versailles en 1973, auquel a d鈥檃illeurs particip茅 Yves Saint Laurent. (The great push for black models in Europe was the result of a charity fashion show organized in the Chateau of Versailles in 1973, where YSL showed his creations.)|||I cannot find one blessed year when he used black models, read this though
