AVENUE MONTAIGNE: A NEW CHAPTER FOR SAINT LAURENT

Anthony Vaccarello

Saint Laurent has always prioritized luxury through privacy. Under the direction of Anthony Vaccarello, the Maison extends its presence on the Champs-Élysées to Avenue Montaigne, creating a space devoted entirely to personalized, intimate experiences—wrapped in the refinement that has defined it for years.

Three levels unfold as a progression toward intimacy, silence, and contemplation; a journey in which the protagonist is you, surrounded by artworks that breathe at their own pace. Inside this new space, furniture and art objects serve as anchors of a shared memory: the cultural lineage of the Maison.

Some pieces speak softly yet firmly: a pair of Süe & Mare armchairs, a Paul Poiret daybed for Atelier Martine, a François-Xavier Lalanne table, references to Jean-Michel Frank, Charlotte Perriand, and Josef Hoffmann, and a curated selection of contemporary artworks that engage in subtle dialogue.

In this atmosphere of control and light, the boutique gathers the full Saint Laurent universe — from women’s and men’s prêt-à-porter to leather goods, accessories, shoes, and fine jewelry — as though each category orbited around a single aesthetic gesture.

On the upper floor, a private salon overlooking Avenue Montaigne offers an experience that feels almost ritualistic, while a landscaped terrace concludes the visit with an unexpected breath of calm in the heart of the 8th arrondissement.

Is it a Saint Laurent dreamland? If you have the chance to visit, tag us — we’ll accept the FOMO.
