On Tuesday, Saint Laurent ushered in its Summer 2026 menswear collection beneath the soaring rotunda of Paris’s Bourse de Commerce—an architectural jewel turned contemporary art museum. Staged unusually at midday, the show set the tone for what was to come. Anthony Vaccarello conjured a suspended moment—somewhere between Paris and Fire Island—where escape morphs into elegance and desire speaks its own language. The show was staged around clinamen, a calming sky-blue installation by artist Céleste Boursier-Mougenot, suspended in the center of the rotunda and setting the mood for the collection.

Among the guests lending their edge to the front row were Argentinian experimental pop duo Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso. Known for their experimental sound, the pair gave VMAN an exclusive glimpse behind the scenes of Saint Laurent’s spectacle.
