Released as a series of black-and-white images, alongside a video – soundtracked by Alexandra Savior‘s track Saving Grace – the campaign spotlights Slimane’s latest collection for the Parisian fashion house. Taking us to Saint Tropez via Saint Germain, SS20 swept us to the French coastal town during its 70s heyday. A time populated by new wave filmmakers and yé-yé musicians – the likes of Jean-Luc Godard, Jane Birkin and Françoise Hardy.

Invigorated, the collection’s accompanying imagery pulls this moment into the present – while time travel remains fiction, Slimane recognises the transcendental power of clothes, especially when wrapped around a burgeoning generation.
