From The Beginning, A Simplicity Of Silhouette – As If Created With A Few Pencil Strokes – Has Defined The Saint Laurent Ideal.
With straightforward pieces free of superfluous details, Anthony Vaccarello’s Winter 2025 women’s collection for the house affirms this founding ethos. Instead of speaking through ornament or padding, fabrics and precise construction shape the garments. Pure forms and volumes are derived from construction and cut.
Ample stone-washed skirts worn with leather blousons create ambiguity, while a concise palette – saturated versions of signature Saint Laurent colors – fills out the collection’s clear lines.
To achieve a novel, more technical texture, stretch fabrics are paired with guipure, couture fabrics are distressed, and cigaline silk printed with iconic animal and floral motifs is submerged in silicone.
As a counterweight to the clothes’ minimalism, pointed shoes are embellished with a satin square rose. Accessorizing jewellery is made of rock crystal, a lucky stone favored by Yves Saint Laurent.
The set – a grand onyx oval – reflects the collection’s otherworldly mineral feel, as glowing walls suggest both impenetrability and unmined depth, their rich patterns a snapshot of human complexity.
