The Saint Laurent Autumn/Winter 2026 show brought together François Arnaud, Lila Moss, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Zoë Kravitz and Rosé in the front row.
Paris Fashion Week Autumn/Winter 2026–2027 once again transformed the French capital into the global epicentre of fashion, and one of the most anticipated moments of the calendar was the Saint Laurent show, directed by Anthony Vaccarello. The collection also marked the 60th anniversary of ‘Le Smoking’, the iconic women’s tuxedo created by Yves Saint Laurent, a design that forever reshaped the relationship between masculine tailoring and feminine elegance.
Since its debut in the 1960s, ‘Le Smoking’ has symbolised power, sensuality and modernity. This season, Anthony Vaccarello revisited that legacy with a contemporary approach, presenting elongated tailoring, precise shoulders and plunging necklines that reinforced the distinctive silhouette of the house.




The designer also introduced daytime interpretations of the classic tuxedo, crafted in pinstripe fabrics with softer structures and fluid lines. These pieces were paired with delicate-looking lace dresses reinforced with latex, creating a striking contrast between softness and structure that defined the tone of the runway.
Among the guests who drew the most attention in the Saint Laurent front row were some of the most influential figures on the international fashion scene. Kate Moss, an enduring fashion icon, attended alongside her daughter Lila Moss, forming one of the most photographed duos of the evening.
Model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley also stood out in the front row with her refined and minimalist aesthetic, while actress Zoë Kravitz brought her signature rock-inflected style to the event. Joining them was Rosé, member of BLACKPINK, whose presence highlights the growing connection between Parisian fashion and global pop stars.
The show’s staging, accompanied by sleek chignons, smoky eye make-up and bold gold jewellery, reinforced the powerful aesthetic that has long defined the house.
With this collection, Saint Laurent reaffirmed that its interpretation of the women’s tuxedo remains an absolute reference. Even in a landscape where many brands reinterpret tailoring, the legacy of ‘Le Smoking’ continues to stand apart on the runway and in the history of fashion.
