The fifth Yves Saint Laurent manifesto will be released on Saturday, September 12, 2009 where over half a million copies of the eco-consciously printed Manifesto will be distributed in the streets of Paris, New York, Milan, London, Tokyo, Hong Kong and, for the first time, Seoul. Like past seasons of manifesto distribution, the first 2,000 passerby in each city will receive the Manifesto in a custom cotton tote bag designed by Creative Director Stefano Pilati. Photographed by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin and featuring Christy Turlington in the Yves Saint Laurent Fall/Winter 2009-2010 collection. Guess it’s a free gift, so we can’t complain much. Besides, it’s for a good cause!
