YSL leather jacket from the the fall 2003 collection Photo archives via: Style.com Styling tips to make a 7-year old YSL Leather Jacket look modern I have an authentic vintage Yves Saint Laurent black leather jacket that I purchased around 2002 when I worked for the company.

What would you recommend wearing it with? Should I wear jeans and heels

Lady Gaga and Giorgio Armani Prive at the Grammy’s, a spectacular fashion collaboration
Lady Gaga dressed exclusively in Giorgio Armani Privé at the Grammy's When haute couture meets performance art, the result is out of this world - Photo GalleryRed carpet fashion takes an other worldly turn Lady Gaga is not exactly a simple dresser. I’ve never been absolutely convinced that she owned her look rather than borrowed references from the avant-garde: Leigh Bowery’s performance art masterpieces, Grace Jones’ graphic mark on individualism in collaboration with Jean-Paul Goude, the highly stylized and imaginative ensembles of style icon Anna Piaggi, and even the outlandish outfits of the Club Kids from the late 80’s posing through the night.

Disorderly conduct: The new crystals put bling on its edge.
Glitz got roughed up and it looks fabulous When you are looking for a modern detail to update your look, think about a clustered blast of raw, haphazard crystals. The new bling has a gritty, offhanded elegance reminiscent of rock candy or shattered glass. What's modern is not the cheap trick sparkly bling many of us associate with pavé phone cases, cloyingly cute crystal encrusted novelty doodads, or glittering from a too tight T-shirt. Crystals now have an irregularity to them that looks fresh. SHOP: Swavorski Crystallized online “It's interesting, when I think of encrusted crystal, I think of Paris Hilton's Sidekick. It's a frosty crystal that has been so cheapened as it hit the mass market in a huge

It’s “Kell On Earth,” When Kelly Cutrone Puts the Real in Reality TV
The fashion publicist who takes no prisoners also has some words about the future of the Internet 'This is a hardcore show about hardcore chicks who are running a hardcore agency' ---Kelly Cutrone Being on a press conference call with Kelly Cutrone is a lot like being tossed in the center of a cyclone of information, it's a breathless whirlwind of wisdom, no-nonsense sidebars, on-topic free association, razor sharp quips, and provocative opinion. The call with Cutrone, the straight-talking founder of the fashion public relation's firm People's Revolution, and her two business partners, Robyn Berkley and Emily Bungert was to promote their new fashion reality show 'Kell On Earth,' which premieres on Bravo February 1st.

Bruce Weber Short Film for YSL Menswear
Ain't Nothin' Like The Real Thing, a Bruce Weber Short Film for YSL Fall/Winter 2010-11 "If you don't want to be nude, wear a suit" is what Bruce Weber originally wanted to call his short film. Sometimes I feel as if I need to explain my references. I am sure there are souls who are not familiar with Bruce Weber's brillaint work. Presently, he is the the most commercially known for his Abercrombie & Fitch photographs. Back in the day, it was for his Calvin Klein Underwear ads. If you were a male model in the 80's and had a portrait by Bruce Weber in your portfolio, you instantly skyrocketed to having a certain covetable cache that made you the
