*MIZBIES* YSL Manifesto Spring/Summer 2011 Giveaway!!

Two things going on in the world of YSL. First, as Fashion Week continues in Europe, rumors of Stefano Pilati's departure have resurfaced; making everyone guess who the next head designer may be. YSL also recently announced the departure of Valerie Hermann, CEO of YSL, which makes this rumor even more credible. UPDATED: Seems the rumor can be put to rest. Pilati isn't going anywhere says tweet by YSL.

Moving on to more exciting news. On March 5th, the YSL Manifesto limited–edition tote bags will be distributed once again. This global event naturally includes New York City, but Mizhattan's west coast readers should also get excited, as this giveaway will take place in Los Angeles for the first time. The Spring/Summer 2011 Edition VIII is expected to contain a booklet photographed by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin with Arizona Muse as the face of the campaign.

MizAdvice: Remember ladies and gents, the collector totes are very very limited in quantity. So, to help you along, here are some past distribution locations that I feel are viable places to stake out: Grand Central, Times Square, Soho, Union Square, and their 57th boutique. Also make sure to visit YSL's website on March 4th to preview their new campaign. Best of luck!!
