Baggy, paint-spattered shorts? Droopy, drop-shouldered sweaters? A patched, worn sweatshirt? Stefano Pilati's latest collection seemed designed to inflame those who feel the name of Yves Saint Laurent should stand for the precise, peak-shouldered perfection of the trad French gent. Pilati wasn't having it. Lately, he's been enjoying himself playing in the art world, and it was "a liberated artistic mind" he intended his new designs for. After the show, he said that the paint that spattered clothes and shoes represented "the complete spontaneity that is sometimes missing from fashion."
