Look what I found in today's WWD:
"EXTRA EXTRA: This is not a typo: Yves Saint Laurent will be handing out thousands of free bags come Sept. 6. The limited edition cotton totes, designed by Stefano Pilati, are the latest wrinkle in the French house’s ongoing “Manifesto” program, in which newspaper-style catalogues are handed out to women on the streets of key fashion cities. More than half a million copies of the catalogue will be distributed in Paris, New York, London, Milan, Tokyo and Hong Kong, with 5,000 in each city tucked into the black or white totes. Emphasizing YSL’s ready-to-wear, this season’s Manifesto features Naomi Campbell in fall-winter designs, photographed by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin. — Miles Socha"
Do you know what that means??? That means that your resident fashion/beauty blogger will be walking the streets of Manhattan on the 6th in search of this bag! If you are in the New York City area for Fashion Week, this is one of those times to grab any and every catalogs being handed out along 42nd street!
Every Fashion Week, there are TONS of sponsors standing outside the tents with catalogs, free juices, after parties-basically any product that they are trying to launch. You won't believe how much stuff I've gotten just for walking by the tents (ok I'm not that pathetic I have a reason for being near the tents...it's on my way to the train station....OK, I definitely hang out in front gasping at the editors).
Possible places where they might be handing these out:
-Outside the Tents, along 42nd and 6th ave
-Outside 4 Times Square (which is the Condé Nast Building, Condé Nast being home of Vogue, W, Allure, etc.), 42nd and Broadway
These are the two places I can think of because I have gotten a YSL catalog last Fashion Week while walking past the Condé Nast building and like I stated earlier...everything is handed out in front of the tents. Pretty much anywhere within the vicinity of the tents.
Don't worry ya'll..I'll be on the lookout for these totes. Believe me!
