Paris Fashion Week has begun, completing the seasonal fashion cycle for Spring/Summer 2024. Anthony Vaccarello, creative director of Saint Laurent, paid tribute to the heritage of the house founded by Yves Saint Laurent in 1962.
Like most of Saint Laurent shows, celebrities such as Hailey Bieber, Kate Moss, Demi Moore, Tracee Ellis Ross, Emma Mackey and Austin Butler were seen at front row.
For SS/24, Vaccarello was inspired by the pioneering women who entered the world of aviation, presenting a dynamic collection based on functionality. Garments were presented with strong and masculine silhouettes in harmony with details full of femininity in jumpsuits with pockets tied at the waist. They accessorized with khaki pants and buttoned tank tops. In terms of accessories, oversized sunglasses, hats and leather gloves added sophistication.
Saint Laurent’s dapper-looking models walked the runway in service jackets and smothered pleated pants in burgundy, brown and cream, offset by sheer blouses that outlined the human form. Untucked shirts and cargo-style dresses had classic shapes, with shiny satin dresses with low necklines.
Saint Laurent’s SS24 collection presents modernity and recalls the house’s bold origins through an avant-garde optic.
