Saint Laurent’s show space for FW25 is located on Place Jacque Rueff in close proximity to the Eiffel Tower. Discreet from the outside, inside, a panoramic oval room opens up, monumental in scale and bathed in soft warm light.
The space is lined with over 200 thinly sliced onyx slabs, an all-compassing ribbon of honey coloured stone. Used in ancient churches and palaces as window panes, the stones are so delicate that light passes through. The back-illumination reveals a vivid patterns of veins, a snapshot of the geology of the earth. This monumental ‘window’ provides the exquisite background for this season’s collection.
At the center of the space, Saint Laurent’s signature black leather sofas are arranged back to back, retracing the geometry of the space and offering a generous place to see and be seen.
