Yves Saint Laurent

With over 40 years experience under his fashionable belt, this legendary French designer classic remains at the forefront of the fashion industry. Since he first introduced his infamous slinky tuxedo suits, he has graduated to grand master of design, dressing both men and women in elegant yet stunningly seductive creations. Granted, the clientèle today is a little more mature, but who needs a revival when you've reached iconic status? The house of YSL has however been subject to a recent take-over by Gucci, with Tom Ford taking up the mantel of creative director from Alber Elbaz, whose last season, incorporating the prêt-à-porter line "Rive Gauche" for women, kept the principles of YSL design impressively alive. Along the designer row of New Bond Street, the YSL boutique is sleek and spacious, with subtle low-lighting and mirrors, reflecting the predominantly black collection of apparel and accessories. Concessions can be found at Harrods, Harvey Nichols and Joseph.
