Jul 11, 2025
This summer, SAINT LAURENT unveils a new visual story, "SHADES OF SUMMER." Photographed in the south of France by photographer Henrik Purienne under the direction of Creative Director Anthony Vaccarello, the images viscerally capture the sensations of the summer sun on the skin, the subtle shades of shadow, and the hint of heat, evoking a quiet yet powerful emotion.

The campaign centers around accessories that epitomize the spirit of Saint Laurent. The collection includes the Jamie Shopping collection, crafted from raffia with a striking natural texture, the Ikar collection, crafted from rich black raffia, and the Gabby Vanity collection, available in a variety of variations. All of these pieces are sure to stand out in the summer sunshine.

Also noteworthy is the Saint Laurent Rive Droite Cassandra Backless Swimsuit. Its daring open back enhances the silhouette while highlighting the wearer's individuality. It's a minimalist yet provocative piece.

Furthermore, Rive Droite offers a range of evocative summer objects, themed around "endless summer." From the sculptural snorkel, graphic "Y" bag, beach paddles and the travel-inspired Rive Droite Location Capsule, the collection combines function and playfulness to capture the summer spirit that is uniquely Saint Laurent.

"SHADES OF SUMMER" depicts a summer that is not just bright, but also full of shadows and lingering impressions. The shadows, captured from Saint Laurent's perspective, highlight the intensity of the light while also quietly questioning the true nature of the season. This summer, why not experience the "shadows of summer" as Saint Laurent looks at them?
