New York, NY (CNS) - With conservation and recycling the ultimate power trend, fashion designers across the globe are stepping up to do their part. On Monday, Yves Saint Laurent unveiled "New Vintage," an eco-friendly collection that is made up entirely of remnant fabric from past collections.

The new look features pieces that have been adapted to fit the French fashion house's classic silhouettes and looks. The collection features dip-dyed bustier dresses, embroidered trench coats, separates made in plasticized cotton, a Downtown bag and a sandal.

The limited edition and numbered collection will be sold exclusively at luxury retailer Barney's New York.
