Saint Laurent's Winter 2024 Collection Channels the Spirit of the Past
The spirit of Yves Saint Laurent lives in Anthony Vaccarello’s menswear collection for Winter 2024.
Anthony Vaccarello’s Winter 2024 menswear collection masterfully channels the indelible legacy of Yves Saint Laurent, seamlessly blending the house’s iconic heritage with a modern edge. The influence of Saint Laurent’s revolutionary designs is palpable, especially in the sharply tailored double-breasted suits, a nod to the era of 1980s power dressing. These suits exude authority and elegance, embodying the unapologetic confidence of the time while remaining relevant to today’s sartorial landscape.
However, it is in the striking reinterpretation of an archival look from the 1960s where Vaccarello’s genius truly shines. A bold, helmet-like leather cap cascades into a sculpted rubber peacoat, evoking a futuristic armor that feels both nostalgic and avant-garde. This dramatic piece reimagines Saint Laurent’s vision of strong, fearless silhouettes, merging the past and present in a way that feels utterly timeless. In Vaccarello’s hands, the spirit of Yves Saint Laurent continues to thrive, reinvented for the modern man who is unafraid to embrace boldness, structure, and a touch of rebellion.
