The Saint Laurent Spring 2023 campaign was captured by fashion photographer Vanessa Beecroft, with art direction from Anthony Vaccarello.

Stars of the session are models Alaato Jazyper, Camille Chifflot, Luna Passos, Sihana Shalaj, Alix Bouthors, Yanan Wan, He Cong, Mary Ukech,Yaniris Silverio, Anna Hererra, Ajah Angau, Caren Jepkemei, and Chaima Ameziane.

Vaccarello riffs on all the draping and hoods for a slew of beautifully rendered dresses cut from jersey in two different weights: one heavier and opaque, giving a more constructed look; the other lighter and gauzier, gently—and barely—veiling the body underneath.

Some of these dresses are slipped under sweeping great coats and trenches—which fall in narrow columnar proportions from big shoulders in leather, tweed, or wool—or paired with more leather in the form of capacious blouson jackets that nipped inwards as their cut moved toward the waist.
