YVES SAINT LAURENT has declined to comment this morning on rumours that creative director Hedi Slimane is set to dress The Rolling Stones for their forthcoming tour. The band's publicist also could not confirm yesterday's online speculation, which would see the designer create a wardrobe for the group's four gig dates in November and December. Slimane photographed the fivesome for his coffee table book, Stage, in 2003.
The Yves Saint Laurent helmer has long been inspired by musicians - the star of his current "institutional" Saint Laurent campaign is former Girls frontman Christopher Owens and he has previously photographed artists and bands including David Bowie, Blondie, The Strokes, The Kills and Sonic Youth. The designer's work is characterised by its Seventies-inspired rock 'n' roll aesthetic - a style that would perfectly suit every Rolling Stones band member. We can't think of a better music-fashion pairing.
