The latest campaign for Saint Laurent’s permanent collection stars two upcoming British actors, Liam Walpole and Alex Esmail, both shot by Hedi Slimane.

Walpole recently made his name in the gritty brit flick The Goob (2014), having been street cast by Director Guy Myhill in his Norfolk hometown whilst on the dole. Esmail made his cinematic debut in Attack the Block (2011) before starring in Elaine Constantine’s electric, toe-tapping Northern Soul (2013).

The campaign is the latest set of imagery promoting Saint Laurent’s permanent collection, featuring their chambray western shirt, mac garbardine coat, wool peacoat and, of course, the classic “L17” leather jacket.
