Saint Laurent, black & white

A dark, romantic, fashionable surreal short

Days before Paris Fashion Week starts on September 26th, the fashion house of Yves Saint Laurent releases an experimental short by director-on-the rise, Joshua Gordon featuring YSL’s AW17 line. Shot in black & white against a stark, urban background, a young couple of outsiders in love run through the eerie evening meeting other strangers of the night, including a latex-wearing dominatrix and a man wearing a erotic black snake around his neck.

It’s a weird night and a beautiful sight with clothing by new YSL creative director Anthony Vaccarello and styled by Dazed‘s senior fashion editor, Elizabeth Fraser-Bell. Watch it if you dare.
