PARIS FASHION WEEK: YVES SAINT LAURENT COLLECTION FALL/WINTER 2008/2009 MENSWEAR RUNWAY REVIEW

by Aaron on January 20, 2008

For their Fall/Winter 2008-09 collection Yves Saint Laurent chose of ignore the runway and give a video presentation.

Designer Stefano Pilati chose actor Simon Woods to display the looks in the video.

Pilati continued to play with proportion and volume, though not as exaggerated as last season.  The collection itself included roomy, floor-brushing, wide legged trousers being contrasted with tapered, cropped slim leg pants.  Classic, well cut blazers clashed with bold, polka-dot print blazers.

There was a 70’s vibe to the collection.  Crushed velvet was a highlet of the collection as it came through in blazers and one striking biker jacket.
