Star photographer Bruce Weber’s short film Ain’t Nothin’ Like The Real Thing kicked off Yves Saint Laurent‘s men’s wear show in Paris January 22.

Weber is perhaps best known for his ad campaigns and catalogues for Abercrombie & Fitch, which feature semi-nude hotties.

The black-and-white movie premiered on YouTube and Facebook simultaneously with the launch of the fashion show.

Weber’s seven-minute film shows male models involved in the presentation of YSL’s fall/winter collection, who pose for the camera to the tunes of Marvin Gaye.

It opens with a clothed Simon Nessman singing to a puppy dangling out of a jacket pocket.

Then he and his friends start taking their shirts off. Then they take all their clothes off and jump into a swimming hole in the wilderness.

Weber splices in some vintage shots of nude women, too. The whole thing culminates with the boys cradling an adorable baby, and some more torso flaunting.
