A New YSL-related Feud: There's a new YSL spat in town. While last week’s matchup between Cathy Horyn and the house’s new designer Hedi Slimane provided entertainment, now Saint Laurent’s long-term partner Pierre Bergé is stirring a new spat. According to Bergé, a portfolio of 400 personal items (including nearly 300 sketches, many of them erotic) were stolen from Saint Laurent’s Paris apartment. But the late designer’s former flame and ex-employee, Fabrice Thomas is claiming that he was given the artifacts, which are now in the hands of a German businessman who wishes to remain anonymous.
