SAINT LAURENT
BLACKLIGHT #YSL22 FALL 2019 BY ANTHONY VACCARELLO PREVIEW FILM
BY MARISSA TOZZI
Saint Laurent Creative Director Anthony Vaccarello exposes us to ‘Blacklight’ in a short teasing film showcasing the house’s super-retro Fall 2019 Collection.
Directed by Nathalie Canguilhem, who teamed Vaccarello on the house’s most recent hedonistic campaign film for spring, the film is a moody, electronic ode to the Berlin club scene of the late 80s.
The Impression’s breakout models of the year, Rebecca Leigh Longendyke, is joined by Simona Kust, Vassili Schneider, and Nikita to bask in the glow of blacklight that bridges the past to the future. Should the piece be a foreshadowing of the designer’s upcoming Fall 2019 runway show next month remains to be seen. But until then, we will always have the dark that captures our heart here.
