SOUNDBITE ( French ) Sonia Rykiel- designer : \" The most important thing you will see is the man  , it is a man who today is aware of the things of life, who is taken by politics and is aware of everything that happens around us and who is very interested, maybe a bit less in fashion and a bit more in politics. So a man whose sense of style is a function of what happens in the world \" 3.  Catwalk show. 4.  Finale. SONIA RYKIEL AUTUMN/WINTER 2008 Paris menswear designers set their sights on the youth market Friday, with vibrant collections that breathed new life into that perennial wardrobe staple, the two-piece suit.    Once the preserve of investment bankers and CEOs, suits have found increasing favour with younger men looking to shed their cargo pants and hooded tops.  But forget the stuffy shirt and tie. Today\'s customer is just as likely to throw his impeccably tailored jacket over a loosely buttoned T-shirt and to top it off with an oversized scarf.  At French label Sonia Rykiel, a body-skimming gray pinstriped suit was jazzed up with a black-and-white leopard-print shirt and a V-neck sweater in kingfisher blue. Reinterpreting traditions was the motto .  \" The most important thing you will see is the man  , it is a man who today is aware of the things of life, who is taken by politics and is aware of everything that happens around us and who is very interested, maybe a bit less in fashion and a bit more in politics. So a man whose sense of style is a function of what happens in the world \" Sonia Rykiel , founder of the label told AP Entertainment when asked to describe the collection. \"   A burgundy plaid jacket was deliberately mismatched with midnight blue velvet pants, while fuzzy wool overcoats reflected this season\'s trend for elaborate textures.
