Stella McCartney's Tuxedo Lines Pay Homage to YSL

Stella McCartney may have dedicated her new collection to family and friends but sartorially, she paid homage to Yves Saint Laurent with tuxedo-inspired tops and all-white suits.

Models sashayed past her impressed father, former Beatle Paul McCartney, in sleeveless, low-cut white satin jackets on slit, open skirts.

"It is so stylish, so brilliant... I am so proud," McCartney told Reuters after the show under the gilded dome of the Opera Garnier house in central Paris.

Stella McCartney is the latest designer to have been hit by the Saint Laurent fever, fashion critics say.
Looking at the trends for the next spring/summer collection, the iconic designer also influences Marc Jacobs' bright colors and Givenchy's black and white suits.

Saint Laurent's stylistic presence on the runway coincides with a series of retrospective exhibitions on the French designer and a recently released feature film about his love story with his long-standing business partner Pierre Berge.
