Nice! I just wish it wasn't so expensive.

The last two are REALLY good

[onemancult]

yes. this is what i'm fookin jookin about.

light blue trousers for fall, yes please.

[Liberation1945]

clean, classic menswear...lots of this shit oozes "cool"...the cookie monster suede and the elf green perfectos are really bad though.

typical sufu reply: FLARED PANTS OMG EW

[francojean23]

this and lanvin, the two collections i quickly turned to after seeing dior...

[Tisswat]

There just no escaping patent, is there?

[cyberPUNK]

here comes the typical sufu reply.

i feel like the collection gets better after all the flaring has stopped and where the guy is wearing the blue jacket going from left to right. from that point on everything is simply great.

i'm skinny as fuck so maybe i'm just partial to skinny fit clothing.

[onemancult]

i like the cookie monster. dislike the perfecto, tho.

[francojean23]

agreed...the flaring brings it down a bit...but pristine and classic overall, especially after the pants slim down...

[onemancult]

..everyone does know that wide-legged trousers are what is actually classic, and

slim legs on menswear did not figure much into mainstream style until late into

the last century?

[theetruscan]

Both these pants and the sweater are great. Pity the pants will probably be 800 or so and the sweater like 2k.

i'm assuming by classic the flare was around the 60s or 70s? and the slim significantly later...or am i off? just checking to see if my facts are straight. i'd appreciate any response.

while i can appreciate the classic styling i much rather prefer the slim look,.but after all i am a product of the late last century, so i suppose it's only normal.

[Advantage]

This one's alright.

when I saw the pieces, I thought there was nothing special - I felt like it lacked "character". They just looked good.

Some of the coats/jackets strangely reminds me of Jil Sander.

Good collection but not so amazing.

[Fuuma]

People gotta stop thinking about what they would wear and rekognize da jeenius of this YSL collection; best of the season!!!

actually, if you look back, we've been changing from slim to loose since the 1800s.

YSL is always baller status

[Uinku]

The collection was a bit confusing, the first half had a 70's vibe sillhouette, with all the flared trousers and stuff, while the second half had a modern sillhouette, with the, slim trousers.

im talking tailored suiting and what we, today, call trousers.

if i look any further back than the 19th century, i'll have to consider far too many men in tights and tunic tops.

Me too... Even black tie changes quite a bit:

Slim trousers/tights + corset for men, right?

[lufc_girl]

I'm loving this collection a lot... yes even the flares really nice coats and jackets... oh oh oh and the light blue trousers...

[Andy L]

Love it all!!

[JonathanFrom508]

proportions are on point i really like the silhouettes

[Analog]

Very well executed remix of elements that presents as a strong image/vision. There's a clarity here that's lacking in many of the other collections. My fave of the FW 08.09's.

[GoSurface]

My favorite collection, hands down.

[totally epic]

That video was pretty cool.

[multicolor]

very nice

I would dress in this if I had a lot more money and was attending some glamorous event.

by the way where are the Bernhard Willhelm pictures?! The show was supposed to be at 9pm (i think) on the 20th

...maybe it was a mistake and it's just going to be a lookbook.

[turcy.]

wow, that blue bomber is disgusting, it WILL be mine...
