What’s a major film launch without any merch? In tandem with the release of the PPR-sponsored film “Home,” designed to raise environmental consciousness, Yves Saint Laurent has created a limited-edition range of T-shirts, tank tops and tote bags in exclusive prints on organic cotton. They’ll be sold in select YSL boutiques in early June in tandem with the June 5 worldwide release of the film, which is directed by Yann Arthus-Bertrand and produced by Luc Besson.
