Anthony Vaccarello’s latest Saint Laurent collection is everything you would expect from the house’s future-forward vision—sharp, sleek, and unapologetically cool. For Fall/Winter 2025-2026, it’s all about clean lines, perfect tailoring, and a vibe that’s effortlessly luxe with minimal effort. In other words: it’s the art of doing more with less.

Sculptural Silhouettes, Bold Cuts

This season, Vaccarello strips fashion down to its essence, letting precision cuts and powerful shapes do all the talking. Think perfectly tailored coats and dresses that hug the body in all the right ways. No excess—just pure, structured elegance. Every piece feels like a work of art, where fabric becomes the star, shaped and molded with meticulous craftsmanship. It’s fashion that feels quiet but speaks volumes.

Color Palette: Power In Restraint

Forget loud, in-your-face colors. Vaccarello channels the signature Saint Laurent mood with deep blacks, earthy tones, and unexpected jewel pops. It’s all about subtlety, but don’t mistake that for boring. The collection lets the textures and cuts shine, creating a vibe that’s effortlessly chic and seriously magnetic. Stone-washed skirts and sleek leather jackets bring a perfect balance of raw and refined, making simplicity anything but basic.

Textiles: Where Street Meets Couture

Vaccarello knows how to mix it up. Stretch fabrics pair seamlessly with delicate guipure lace, fusing everyday ease with high-fashion drama. Distressed textures add an edgy vibe, while silk cigaline coated in glossy silicone and stamped with animal prints gives the collection a futuristic, almost otherworldly feel. It’s wearable art—comfortably cool yet avant-garde.

Accessories: Understated, But Still Iconic

The clothes may be minimalist, but the accessories are where things get interesting. Think pointed heels adorned with satin roses and rock crystal jewelry—an Yves Saint Laurent signature—radiating a mystical glow. These small, powerful details are the perfect finishing touch, adding just the right amount of drama without overwhelming the look. Like a killer Instagram caption: subtle, yet unforgettable.

Vaccarello masterfully channels Yves Saint Laurent’s timeless elegance while pushing boundaries with a modern edge. This isn’t just fashion; it’s a vibe. It’s a statement, a moment. With this collection, simplicity isn’t just the flex—it is the flex.
