Saint Laurent Menswear Resort 2025 Paris

I don't know about this.
From ridiculous styling decisions (not only the boxer briefs... are they wearing foulards with belts as skirts?) to cool ideas (i like a lot the combo V neck knit tank top + white shirt + tie), to me it is a picture by picture yes or no.
 
You just KNOW he is the one you want to hang out with, but probably because he got the full look from some local thrift store, ready to sweat them through at a club later. Not because he bought some worse made replica for 2000+ at Saint Laurent. Once again, this is selling an already existing idea to people that never entered a second hand store and are willing to pay for a badly cut suit jacket (with terribly bad shoulders from a house that was known for their shoulder construction, but I digress...) - And you know what, they deserve it. This is no different to me than Balenciaga selling T-Shirts for 500€. And before anybody says 1971 - If there were silk lined jade green furs or silk velvet couture dresses with hand embroidery on them, we would be having a different conversation.

I think the broad shoulder with slim arms is not a good silhouette, and they should stick with the Hedi one, but I like the colors and attitudes probably becuase this look is still living in the shadow of Hedi.
 
not that bad but all of this would look way more convicing if Vaccarelo had cast a juicy ripped MAN with a slightly boyish face like nicholas alexander chavez (lol just watched grotesquerie and im kinda obsessed w nicholas, that man is HOT af)
 
It baffles me how some of you guys are reading a clear vision in this when there is really nothing cohesive about what‘s being shown here - Not a color palette, a narrative thread or fabrics selection that answer clearly who the Saint Laurent man under Anthony Vaccarello is or what this seasonal proposal of dressing is about, other than 80ies inspired suiting (perhaps the only thing that‘s clear, as there is otherwise little else shown that would show a real wardrobe for that man).

Much like the woman‘s collection that was presented at the same time, this looks at best like a Zara interpretation of recent Saint Laurent collections (which they already have). How anybody still feels enthusiastic about Saint Laurent is a miracle to me as the product looks increasingly weak…
 
I think you can’t say Anthony is a terrible designer… I “hate” (not the right word) him for many reasons, because he is so void as a designer, he is like the insta designer, going just for the look, he is a stylist at best, trying to be aesthetic, clean, “stunning”, wow… but he’s so empty after all.

That said, he is not terrible. He just makes pretty clothes that sometimes actually look good on the clients. I feel like consumers might want his garments just for the design and because they feel good and well dressed in them. I feel like in other brands the consumer wants to be edgy (which I despise), wants to look rich… with his Saint Laurent it’s just pretty clothes, quite unpretentious after all, and I kind of respect that tbh.
