Since the announcement of Hedi Slimane‘s intention to revive the long-shuttered couture operations of Saint Laurent, the fashion world has been waiting with bated breath to see what the master of refinement would do for this closely guarded secret. He famously announced that his couture would only cater to people that he would like to dress, and for our second look at his handmade confections, he has tapped one of the hottest in the fashion world right now—Helena Severin—to showcase the rigorous simplicity of his designs. And this collection does not disappoint! With his sophisticated floor-length slip dresses, precisely cut pant suits (a signature of the house of Yves Saint Laurent), and one glittering, figure-hugging cocktail option, Slimane captures the youthful rock spirit that he has infused in the French house and elevates it to the hall of haute couture. Here’s to seeing more of his delightfully restrained creations on the red carpet.
