Hedi Slimane Directs the Visuals

In 1971, Yves Saint Laurent designed the suits and dresses for rock musician Mick Jagger's wedding. From that era to the present, Saint Laurent has maintained a deep connection with rock icons. Hedi Slimane continues this tradition with the Saint Laurent Music Project, creating portraits of rock musicians styled in Saint Laurent pieces.

Hedi Slimane, also known as a photographer, has been in charge of the brand's visuals since becoming Saint Laurent's Creative Director. With close ties to many rock musicians, he featured musician Beck in the Spring/Summer 2013 campaign. This season, musicians Marilyn Manson and Ariel Pink appeared as models for the menswear campaign. For womenswear, female musicians Courtney Love and Kim Gordon are the image girls.

We look forward to future collaborations between Saint Laurent and rock, alongside Hedi Slimane's new creations.
