Olivier Rousteing is ready to sting back.

Taking place earlier this week, fall 2022, was a reflection of strength and vulnerability; Rousteing took inspiration from his social media experiences. Padded, armored, and standing tall in platforms, aggressive shapes were soothed by delicate white laces and pastel furs. Futuristic yet feminine, the collection’s standouts were the final from trompe l’oeil embossed tops and dresses, infusing a darker softness to both the masculine and feminine silhouettes seen throughout the collection. 

With pops of neon and gold, at times, it may be hard to miss, but V is here to show you the greater details. Here, we get an up-close look, from jewelry to handbags, models preparing for the runway, and the smoothing of final details. 

Take a look at the behind-the-scenes below.
