DRIES VAN NOTEN SS26 : CATCHING THE WAVE IN PARIS

SAINT LAURENT AFTER DARK: LEATHER, LIBERTINES AND LUXURIOUS HYDRANGEAS
A garden that spelled it all out From ground level, it looked like an innocent Parisian garden party. White hydrangeas in full bloom, their lush banks catching the night lights as the Eiffel Tower twinkled on cue to the left. But from the sky? Drone footage revealed what the flowers had really been up to: spelling out those three sacred letters, YSL. Of course. While our phones buzzed with the aerial revelation, Hailey Bieber, Zoë Kravitz, Central Cee, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Mad
