" With Apple hiring Paul Deneve, the former CEO of Yves Saint Laurent, to work on what it calls &amp;quot;special projects,&amp;quot; we think it would be a smart move for other tech companies to, ahem, follow suit. Here are the collaborations between the Milan runway and Silicon Valley that we&amp;#039;re dying to see.  Google x Ralph Lauren Google&amp;#039;s success story is the story of America: Two dudes drop out of school and found a company that fundamentally changes the world. That&amp;#039;s why Larry and Sergey should consider bringing on another quintessentially American success story to the Googleplex. Think of this: Google employees could trade in baggy T-shirts for some slim cut polos. Twitter x Frank Muytjens One of the cooler tech companies amid an ocean of nerdiness, Twitter could still benefit from Muytjens who, as head men&amp;#039;s-wear designer of J. Crew, helped transform it into the style powerhouse it is today. At the very least he could help founders Ev and Biz squeeze into some 484s with interesting washes. Facebook + Paige Mycoskie Zuck is still rocking hoodies and billowing T-shirts like he&amp;#039;s coming straight outta 2003. Obviously he&amp;#039;s never going to change his look, so he might as well refine it. Mycoskie&amp;#039;s Aviator Nation specializes in smartly designed SoCal casual wear that includes brilliant graphic tees and, yep, hoodies. (Cut slim, though.) Amazon + Paul Smith Amazon is trusty and reliable but it&amp;#039;s about as visually compelling as a sack of lard. That&amp;#039;s where Paul Smith comes in. The British designer and lover of colorful stripes could easily inject Amazon with a little bit more visual energy. And Jeff Bezos could benefit by delivering his next keynote in some bold statement socks. Microsoft + LeBron James  Look at Steve Ballmer. Just look at him. The guy is sweaty with googley eyes that look like they belong on a cartoon villain. On top of that, the guy is freaking huge. Like professional athlete huge. That&amp;#039;s why Microsoft should bring on the impeccably dressed Sir James not only to teach Ballmer how to properly fit his ample frame into a three-piece suit, but to also deliver fiery pep talks to MS employees.
