The couture house of Saint Laurent had been founded by Yves Saint Laurent in 1961. Fashion icons such as the womans tux, the chiffon pussy bow shirt, the peacoat, the “Saharienne” safari jacket and much more have to be attributed to him. Since 2012 Hedi Slimane took the brand towards a more rock’n roll edge with huge success. Find out more about the most outstanding pieces from his collections here!

Some news on the Saint Laurent cat booties….!

Do you remember how much I started to adored the Saint Laurent cat booties in simple black calf leather back in January when I first saw them on Emmanuelle Alt during the Couture collections in the street style pictures? I always felt that they have such a great design of Victorian lace up shoe meets 60ies style. And due to the flat heel they seemed so comfortable and versatile. My love for the shoe continued to grow when I saw Emmanuelle Alt as well as Carine Roitfeld wearing those shoes during the fall 2014 collections.

Saint Laurent cat boot – Who was first?!

Well, we all know that high street retailers like Zara are largely inspired by high fashion. This inspiration is sometimes so dominant that its hard not to call it copying. However, what I saw on mytheresa while browsing todays new arrivals shocked me!!!!

Trending for 2014 – bomber jackets

OK, the baseball jacket/ MA-1bomber jacket/ blouson style jacket is not a new invention. Initially is was invented back in the 50ies for the air force pilots and found its way into the rave culture during the late 80ies and 90ies. Besides that it is a symbol of American Rock’n Roll, think Grease. For summer 2014 it is seen frequently in the collection.  A trend that seems to continue into fall too.
