Are You Excited for a YSL Movie?
Last Summer we sadly lost one of the greatest names in modern fashion history as Yves Saint Laurent died of brain cancer at his home in Paris. His is widely credited with reinventing womenswear and is arguably one of the members of fashion's holy trinity (along with Coco Chanel and Christian Dior).

Now YSL have got in on the act with their new Christmas beauty collection.

YSL has become something of a byword for classic French beauty. With it's fashion heritage and focus on luxury, the brand's beauty products have that certain je ne sais pas that puts them in a league of their own. Just think of the famous touche eclat for example or the seductive Opium fragrance.

Just in time for the upcoming holiday season, YSL has just unleashed a new beauty collection featuring the bow.

As the late Monsieur Saint Laurent once said, "One should always be tempted to untie a woman's clothes."
