a CHARMING view:  looking back at  fi:af fashion talks 2012 and catching up to PILATI world. a vivacious STEFANO PILATI sparkle, an accessorized glamour view of  YSL summer 2012 luxury… and a few words to share + remember the smiles*

‘YSL is an act of LOVE, a house based on strong principles…’ 

‘I am controversial with myself and I like it! it makes people think..  I am passionate about my work-   spontaneous, instinctive, not aggressive…  and enjoy working with a team. it makes me productive,  even in times when it’s hard to be creative.’ 

‘I am [now] on VACATION… it feels good to enjoy some free time… after 8 years with a challenge like YSL,  anyone would need a break to breathe,  don’t you think?’ 

‘Europeans live FASHION, it has been with them forever, but they are more SNOB about it, while Americans are more excited about it– i LOVE it, i LOVE it! ‘
