Lacroix is on point. I especially like the last sentence: "There was no Yves Saint Laurent revolution because what he proposed had the evidence (obviousness?) of masterpieces evoked by Baudelaire."
These pics are amazing! I got to go here when I was in Paris, and it's breathtaking. We weren't allowed to touch anything and the workers had those white suits on. But just being in the same room as those works of art....breathtaking.
Really? Hope so, Paris fashion needs someone to carry on the YSL legacy. I wasn't bowled over by Pilati at first. The YSL aesthetic requires a rather subtle balance between the genders. And while I see Pilati getting a more masculine edge, I do wonder what would have resulted if Elbaz had stayed. Wasn't he the only successor approved by YSL?
And, also you were right about Carla Bruni's role at the YSL funeral. She has always been one of my favorite models--like some Botticellian abstraction--but I think the initial press coverage of her had been unduly negative (about the marriage, etc.).
I remember this collection from the 80's it is called "Talisman", my aunt has a bag from this line. & your right tylw about Elbaz he was great at YSL he did a graet modern YSL spirit , theoritcaly he succeed but commercialy .. I am not sure.
