PARIS: Saint Laurent presented a contrasting collection of oversized ​suits and delicate lace dresses for ‌its winter collection on Tuesday at Paris Fashion Week. The show opened with a string ​of power suits in black ​with large lapels and shoulder pads - ⁠evoking the tuxedo for women which ​French designer Yves Saint Laurent created in ​1966 in a break with tradition. See-through lace dresses and skirts in earthy tones of red, ​orange and brown were paired ​with huge fur coats or balanced with chunky ‌jewellery. Saint ⁠Laurent, owned by struggling luxury group Kering, has suffered three years of declining revenue as a post-pandemic boom in ​spending on ​expensive ⁠handbags and clothes evaporated. Louis Vuitton draws fashion set to Gare du Nord for runway show Creative director Anthony Vaccarello, leading the brand ​since 2016, is credited with ​growing ⁠Saint Laurent’s revenue and reach. Saint Laurent’s sales were 2.6 billion euros ($3.02 billion) last ⁠year, ​down from a peak ​of 3.3 billion euros in 2022.
