Saint Laurent’s muse absolutely defies the conventional allure of classic beauty — she’s a woman of depth, drawn to the shadows, unapologetically embracing the allure of indulgence and risk. In her, danger and desire are not temptations but proud choices, claimed with a modern confidence. And Created Director Anthony Vaccarello sharpens the House's legacy, refining the essence that’s always set it apart: Saint Laurent’s power lies not just in the design, but in the fearless independence of the women who bring it to life. 

Throughout the years, the “Saint Laurent woman” has been personified by a select group of models. These muses, chosen for their individuality and their ability to reflect a new feminine ideal, have become inseparable from the Saint Laurent narrative and vision. So, as a tribute to these icons, every piece in this collection is named after a woman who has played a pivotal role in shaping the House’s legacy — past and present.

To bring this illustration to life, the stage reimagines Vaccarello’s grand Saint Laurent sets, with a sleek, dark structure seamlessly placed within a historic courtyard. An oval oculus frames the night sky, while a towering golden frieze casts a gentle, luminous glow across the space. Below, the rich blue floor subtly whispers of Yves’ legendary Marrakech gardens. One part of the collection pays homage to Saint Laurent’s signature aesthetic, offering fluid, effortless pairings of suits and jackets layered over blazers. As the mood shifts, so too does the collection, transitioning into a more opulent, skirt-driven direction, inspired by the House founder’s love for vibrant, painterly hues.
