Vintage Video: Hedi Slimane for YSL 98/99

Duckie Brown was all about the lack of music with their recent Fall 2008 show, but Hedi Slimane’s 99 collection for YSL followed the no sound route way before. In the vintage vid we get to meet the designer and his collection but the lack of music makes me feel disconnected to the collection and more aware of the snapping and coughs coming from the crowd. Fortunately there was no cellular chatter in this round of show.

Hedi Slimane has No Interest in Diesel

Hedi Slimane has No Interest in Diesel fashion WWD reports that talks between representatives of Renzo Rosso of Diesel and Hedi Slimane took place as recently as this past weekend, but Slimane’s people insist no deal has been made — and may never be.

Following reports Slimane may be tapped to design Diesel’s new Red Collection, one of his representatives told WWD that the former Dior Homme creative director has “no interest at all in Renzo Rosso’s group, let alone Diesel.” Oh, snap. That sounds like a diss to me.

You’re Such a Pain, Hedi Slimane

Youre Such a Pain, Hedi Slimane fashion WWD reports that Hedi Slimane might be returning to the luxury house of LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton. Diesel may be preparing to launch a Red Collection to be designed by Slimane.

Alright, I might actually care about this collaboration. Hedi was amazing for Dior. His departure felt abrupt and his influence has been missed in current collections. I’m glad Hedi will be off his ass and working again. Plus, Diesel needs this push. Their windows at Union Square have been making the once iconically downtown feeling brand looking like a hodgepodge of hipster approved neons and has given the brand an LA chicness that no self respecting fashion devotee can appreciate.

Bring on the glamor Hedi.
