Spirit Of YSL Is Alive And Well In The Hands Of Anthony Vaccarello

The legacy left behind by design legend Yves Saint Laurent is a constant source of inspiration for creative director Anthony Vaccarello, especially in his fall’21 collection for Saint Laurent

Very YSL and very French — the world of Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello has always been built upon those ideas, paying homage to the legacy and heritage of the late fashion legend. Vaccarello’s collections for Saint Laurent have been a continuous exploration of the YSL archive, each given his own twist and take, and this Fall’21 collection — the equivalent of a traditional Pre-Fall’21 range in the fashion calendar — is no different.

After a presentation of the brand’s Winter’21 collection (its FW’21 collection equivalent) in the most jaw-dropping of landscapes, Saint Laurent chooses to unveil its Fall’21 season against a backdrop much closer to home — namely the Saint Laurent headquarters on Rue de l’Universite on Paris’ Left Bank.
