Cult couture designer Yves Saint Laurent on Friday 22 January unveiled its autumn/winter collection with a film from cult photographer Bruce Weber featuring eye-stopping boys, some nicely-tailored clothes, and a lot of female nudity.
Titled "Ain't Nothin' Like The Real Thing", with Marvin Gaye singing, the seven-minute black-and-white movie kicking off the YSL collection premiered on YouTube and Facebook.
Likewise the grand old house of Dior on Saturday 23 January launches its 2010 autumn/winter mens' lines with a giant catwalk show viewable live on the net at Dior Homme.
