Yves Saint Laurent: Androgynous Elegance at the Heart of Paris Fashion Week
A Play on Masculine and Feminine Contrasts
Yves Saint Laurent made a powerful statement at the latest Paris Fashion Week, unveiling a collection that redefined androgyny through structured silhouettes and impeccable tailoring. Anthony Vaccarello, the house’s creative director, drew inspiration from classic menswear codes, elevating them into a sophisticated and contemporary aesthetic.
On the runway, looks were dominated by oversized blazers, sharp, tailored ensembles, and crisp white shirts paired with slim ties. The emphasis was on the power of tailoring, a signature of Saint Laurent, modernized through bold proportions and innovative layering.
The Unexpected Bomber Jacket
One of the standout elements of the collection was the bomber jacket, reimagined and layered over traditional blazers. This unexpected styling twist brought a fresh, contemporary feel to the formality of the suit, offering a subtle yet striking contrast.
The color palette remained true to Saint Laurent’s DNA, with deep blacks, charcoal grays, and dark blues, punctuated by touches of beige and khaki. The overall aesthetic was minimalistic, allowing the precision of the cuts and textures to take center stage.
A Powerful and Timeless Style
The Fall/Winter 2025 collection perfectly encapsulates Vaccarello’s vision, seamlessly evolving Saint Laurent’s heritage while maintaining its essence. His mastery of masculine-feminine duality results in a wardrobe that is both powerful and effortlessly sophisticated.
With this collection, Saint Laurent reaffirms its influence on contemporary fashion, setting a new standard for a style that is both timeless and deeply in tune with modern aesthetics.
