So...shouldn't the YSL video be up somewhere yet?

It'll be a little bit longer I guess...(Monday) for YSL. Instead of creating a whole new thread for the one picture that has been released, I'll just post this here. Here's the New York Times snippet.

Woods appeared in a triptych video that YSL designer Stefano Pilati did in lieu of a runway show, and which you can catch on Monday on the YSL site, YouTube, and Showstudio, among others. The film was effective, particularly in capturing the rich, crystal-like colors and the contemporary attitude. I liked the clothes: those ruddy tweed coats with soft cotton henleys; the tie-dyed velvet blazers (think crushed velvet) with wide, old-school English-y tweed trousers; the stiff jackets and biker jackets in a new Japanese rain-repellant felt; the fuzzy-curly coats vaguely hinting of the 70s. One of my favorite looks was a collarless navy blazer edged in grey flannel. Nearly always when I see a Pilati men’s show I think, Why can’t he do this piece or that piece for women? There is—how shall I put it?—more peculiarity with his men’s shows than his women’s. Not more finesse but a natural expressiveness, registered best in his choice of fabrics.
