Forget fuss. Saint Laurent’s summer drop leans into a softer, saltier kind of glamour. The kind that feels like 1970s France in a bottle of tanning oil. The mood? A beach bag with nothing but the essentials: maybe a scarf, maybe a swimsuit, maybe not.
Shot in warm, natural light with a human-first gaze, the collection revels in skin, sun, and sensual ease. Barely-there silhouettes, oversized gold accents, and an emphasis on the body, not dressed up. This is not about trying too hard. It’s about letting the details: a bold bracelet, a waist chain, a hit of lipstick red, carry the attitude.
There’s a grounded, elemental palette running through it all: worn suede, washed-out greens, bitter chocolate, sunlit gold. It’s Saint Laurent on vacation, rethinking beachwear with clean lines and quiet confidence. There’s even a surfboard!
Sometimes, summer’s best dressed doesn’t look dressed at all.
