Yves Saint Laurent

This season, Stefano Pilati's collection for Yves Saint Laurent had undeniable undertones of religious garb. Many of the models were almost completely covered, while a select few were exposed with sheer fabric. Vibrant touches of color pumped up the collection from a fashion house that uses black quite liberally. Another cool little detail was the long gold necklaces. The pendants were silouttes of Seventies YSL ads. This along with a lot of the shapes gave the collection a retro vibe, obviously serving as an ode to Saint Laurent himself. Even so, it was quite modern looking, full of looks that the house's late, great founder would be proud of.

  1. I say that the most memorable item of this runway show is the shoes. Yves Saint Laurent always starts new shoe trends and i do believe they will start another one. Remember* they did bring back the gladiator that year.
