[stefanelle]

Congrat everybody, espeically BerlinRocks!

Can't wait for the new theme !

 

[BerlinRocks]

maybe it was really attendu... but as one of the Fashion Genius just left us, I think this is time for tsf-ers to pay him an Hommage....
so the theme for this coming round would be : YVES SAINT LAURENT (1936 - 2008) ...
you can do anything you want but remember it is about Saint Laurent... You can go through archives to now collections ....

to help you with this theme, here are some informations :
- to get some old editorials : waybackmachine can get you through the bwgreyscale's archives, where you'll find vintage editorials....
http://www.archive.org/web/web.php

- Firstview gave free access to YSL's collections archives, you can find anything you want overthere if you have a doubt about one outfit featured in one editorial :
http://www.firstview.com/collection.php?s_d=1687&clear=1

- TFS's threads :
http://www.thefashionspot.com/forums/f60/legendary-designer-yves-saint-laurent-dies-71-a-68671.html
http://www.thefashionspot.com/forums/f116/1936-2008-yves-saint-laurent-30195.html
....

of course, you can do anything... let your imagination work... you can just put a YSL logo with a quote on a white cover, you can draw, you can choose a catwalk image etc.

--------------------------------------------------

and then once they accepted you can all go....

Yes, I think we should encompass every designer as well It's hard to exclude I'm afraid...

What a wonderful theme though Berlin -- great homages ahead!

 

[stefanelle]

Great theme! And amazing #1 entry, R-G!

 

[BerlinRocks]

i think i already used this image or same editorial ... hope it's ok...
but there it's because Linda's wearing YSL and because of her pose.... and the black on a white page ....

Entry one:

and congrats BerlinRocks,perfect theme.

 

[dior_couture1245]

Gorgeous theme. I think so far, these have been some of the best covers ever in this thread. Magazine covers are never poignant...so it's really interesting to see these covers (even if it is not real) convey so much emotion!
