Unfortunately, all of them are completed items. I wish I had bid on the corsage and green velvet jacket. I was also surprised that the black smoking ensemble went only for $300!? You can find them if you run a completed items search; they were from live auctions.

Yves Saint Laurent’s legacy affects me in a good way. What a great heritage. I do eight collections a year for the house, so I think it is legitimate to take inspiration from his work. When I was at Prada we looked to Yves, so why not when I am here? The archives are amazing; if I could have a bed there and sleep on it every night, I would be happy for the rest of my life. You open an armoire and out pops a taffeta skirt, then there are all the boleros, the multicoloured furs and the velvets. You go there and you want to bend down on your knees; you are blown away. You feel the grandeur of the man; you feel how prolific he was.
