Once again, Yves Saint Laurent’s Creative Director Stefano Pilati has gone that little bit further than his fashion peers in disseminating news of his Spring/Summer 2008 collection. Following hot on the heels of his groundbreaking multimedia men’s show, Pilati has this time expanded on the success of his manifesto operation that debuted last year.

Concurrent with the catwalk show in Milan, Pilati will distribute a 24-page printed booklet showing the season’s advertising campaign, shot by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin, featuring none other than Kate Moss. The distribution itself is something of a global operation: the manifesto will be given out by hand on the streets of London and Milan on Saturday February 23rd, Tokyo on Sunday 24th, New York and Paris on Tuesday 27th and finally Hong Kong on April 19th. In total a million copies will be dished out, saturating global capitals of cool with YSL’s message. And for anyone not lucky enough to be handed one personally, they can catch a behind-the-scenes manifesto video, premiering on Monday 25th February on YSL.com. [Link]

Yves Saint Laurent's Spring 2008 Advertising Campaign With Kate Moss

When it time to turn it on, Kate Moss knows how turn it on. She spends most of her time looking unkempt and unwashed, then when it is time to deliver, Kate does everytime.

I love these pictures from the new YSL Spring 2008 advertising campagin. I even think it is better than the Fall 2007 campaign fronted by Gisele Bundchen as it has more character and is not as moody.

This is Kate's second Spring 2008 campaign. She also stars in the very hot and sexy Donna Karan ads.

Bag Designer Of The Year - Stefano Pilati - YSL

The Yves Saint Laurent Downtown bag was labeled as a must-have bag for this year. Nearly every celebrity from A list Cate Blanchett to D List Ashlee Simpson carried a YSL bag whether it was a Dowtown, an Uptown or a Tribute.

The PursePage.com says

"The label constantly turns out hits. YSL had the Downtown, followed by the Uptown and now the Overseas. The Overseas hasn't caught on quite yet,
but the Downtown/Uptown are bona fide hits. Plus, I think YSL bags
reach out to a wide audience. I think Pilati really knows how to
identify with the modern working woman".

Kate Moss as the new (?) face for Yves Saint Laurent's Spring Summer 2008 ad campaign. In the video below you can catch a glimpse of some behind-the-scene actions during the photo shoot, along with YSL's creative director Stefano Pilati adding his finishing touches to Ms. Moss. At 34 Kate Moss is still going strong, looking pretty fab and still one of the most coveted faces in the fashion industry.
