Yves Saint Laurent

There aren't that many brands that have that sort of energy at the moment.

And at this one group, Caring, which owns Gucci, Saint Laurent, Balenciaga, and Bottega Veneta, they had a bunch of these, there were 12 designer changes in 2025, like 12 houses, for various reasons.

And these things have always happened, but they just all happened all at once.

And every brand post-COVID was not doing well, basically.

So that.

But the other...

So Saint Laurent, another caring brand, Anthony Vaccarello, who was their creative director for 10 years, is leaving.

The creative director of Chloe is going to be the new designer.

any item that you regret selling or giving away

Yes, there was a Yves Saint Laurent jacket that I got at a charity shop in San Francisco in probably 2009.

It was a double-breasted gray blazer, and I used to wear it to Paris all the time, and for some reason, it was definitely an emotional, like, I'm going through stuff situation, and I gave it away, and I do really regret it, because I would wear it all the time now, but.

Well, I have that as a setting on the real wheel and it'll come

When we were in Montreal, we went into Marshall's there.

it blew my mind the marshalls in montreal in canada had gucci ysl burberry like it was wild it was all designer not all you

don't find that at marshalls in america No, it's not in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

No.

in tv news everybody all's fair and love and red carpets the cast of ryan murphy's legal drama all's fair celebrated this season two premiere of their hit show during the rome film festival over the weekend there are girls the stars of the show kim kardashian sarah paulson naomi watts and nisi nash bets along with chris jenner looking just stunning on the red carpet as they promoted the premiere on hulu of All's Fair.

Kim wore a 1986 vintage Yves Saint Laurent channeling Sophia Loren.

Mom Chris wore a 1969 cape belonging to none other than Elizabeth Taylor.

Look at that scorpion on there.

Okay.

Because there's a, what's the bag? There's a YSL bag that I want.

Yeah.

And it's so cool, but the buckle is so huge.

And it says YSL on it.

And the only reason I like it is because I do kind of want to flex and just be like, oh, this bag.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Then that's where the hypocrisy comes into it.

Dominique Cosmetics came out in 2022 and Molly Sims launched this wide awake in 2024 not to mention in 2024 wise beauty y-i-s-e was formerly known as i guess same pronunciation but y-s-e accused of infringement by ysl in 2024 for being too similar especially the way it looks that's what i had in my notes ready to talk about Not to mention the packaging of YSL's Touche O'Clock

versus this.

YSL had a problem with you.

You were beefing, so then you went after somebody else.

That's all it gives to me.

And it would have

been one thing if it was just the YSL drama.

It's over.

And I kind of feel that Gucci is in a period where YSL might be in a similar period where they have high level of brand recognition, but the brand desirability is low.

And the brand quality is probably not at the same level as your Bottega's, your Louis Vuitton's, your Hermes's.

My goodness.

Just Gucci, YSL, Alexander McQueen, Dior and IRO.

Those shops alone, I need time.

Yeah, you need a lot of
