Iris van Herpen Fall 2015 PFW
In van Herpen's collections, science fiction often meets science fact, and perhaps here was the most literal expression of the combination. "The whole concept of terraforming started in science fiction, but it has become a reality," said the designer after her show. "It made me think about what is our space? Should we do it? The collection is mainly my fantasy of what we would do."

Ann Demeulemeester to Exit House
Ann Demeulemeester is to exit the fashion house that bears her name. The Antwerp-based designer dispatched a PDF of a handwritten letter to announce her decision.
“A new time is coming both for my personal life and the brand Ann Demeulemeester,” she wrote. She said the brand now has “its own identity and legacy that is able to continue growing without me.”
She noted that the company would show men’s and women’s collections for fall-winter 2014 together on Feb. 27 in Paris.

Saint Laurent Music Project by Hedi Slimane
Courtney Love, Marilyn Manson, Kim Gordon and Ariel Pink style themselves in Hedi Slimane’s new photographic series, premiered on Dazed Digital.
Yves Saint Laurent and music have always been very close to each other and Hedi Slimane continues to emphasize the connection with his new Saint Laurent Music Project. The portrait series draws “on the relationship between rock icons and the house since its earliest days.”
Saint Laurent Fall 2013 PFW
The collection Slimane showed on Monday night didn’t shout, whisper or even mouth the words Saint Laurent. But (blasphemous though it may ring to those who worship at the YSL altar), to do so might not be the designer’s mandate. Word around Paris is that the company brass wants the collection to skew younger in look in the hopes of engaging a younger customer. Consider that done. Surely one cannot miss the ubiquity of Seventies-ish floppy hats around this city, both at the shows and elsewhere — a trend traceable to Slimane’s spring runway. None of which explains his fall collection.
