FASHION plates: Yves Saint Laurent’s Le Smoking look
By Jordan Porter
When thinking about the fashion greats, Yves Saint Laurent is one of the first to come to mind. Inspired by Morocco, Mondrian, and so much more, the designer’s influence is still heavily felt throughout the industry. YSL: L’Amour Fou, the documentary focusing on Saint Laurent’s private life (out on DVD next month), has got us thinking more about his personal style though. Even though he was responsible for dressing style icons such as Catherine Deneuve, we think the designer was an icon in his own right. It’s also fitting that in 1966 Saint Laurent introduced the androgynous Le Smoking tuxedo, putting women in the traditional garb of men. Flip through our favourite boyish picks and see how to do menswear in true Saint Laurent style.

Vancouver: Spring shopping on a lark
Photography by Natsumi Akatsuka
March is always a funny month here in Vancouver; the weather is always taking us by surprise. It’s sunny one minute and snowy the next. Not to mention these moments are interspersed with rain, rain and sometimes even more rain. You never know what to expect, so dressing for the weather can be a challenge. But if it weren’t for this mix-up of meteorology, we would never be able to come to enjoy the beautiful colours that spring brings: dandelion seed, cherry-blossom pink, sky blue, etc…
