SAINT LAURENTS LIP PRINT: THIS SEASONS MOST-WANTED

Having recently announced Moscow-born model Valerie Kaufman for its latest campaign, Saint Laurent is also bringing new meaning to the phrase ‘getting lippy’ – by reviving an old classic from its 70s archives for the current season.

The revered fashion house showed a black silk georgette crossover minidress and white sequin asymmetric top on its Spring/Summer 14 runway in September last year, featuring a repeated lip print inspired by Yves Saint Laurent’s own creations over forty years ago – this time re-imagined by Creative Director Hedi Slimane.

The look has been updated for today’s modern Saint Laurent woman, and transformed by contemporary silhouettes – which have since appeared across a variety of magazine covers and fashion editorials – cementing a surefire commercial hit of the season.
