The Saint Laurent Christmas 2020 Capsule Collection Dispenses with The Bells & Whistles

  • By Wilson Lim

How would the French luxury fashion Maison, Saint Laurentknown for their singular hyper-sensual imageries — celebrate the upcoming festivity?  They keep at what they do best, with updates that allude to the season of “reds and greens” — namely, the Saint Laurent Christmas 2020 Capsule Collection.

First up, the City Backpack in Tartan Wool. The Saint Laurent men’s core accessory is given a Christmas iteration that would well last beyond the festivities.

The tartan print has come to be associated with Christmas despite its Scottish origins because the Scots celebrate a festivity called the “Yule”, where they burned the Yule log and kissed under the mistletoe (a fertility rite).  Sounds familiar?

If one is looking for a smaller accessory, the Nuxx Bodybag in Tartan Wool would look great with a Rudolph jumper and also the classic Saint Laurent black velvet jacket, louche silk shirt and black jeans.

The highlight of the Saint Laurent Christmas 2020 Capsule Collection is the new print as seen on this Large Pouch in Black Monogram Embossed Leather — the “YSL” monogram is housed in individual diamonds to form a perfect, symmetrical motif.


The novel print is also available with the Fragment Cardcase in Black Monogram Embossed Leather and Wallet in Black Monogram Embossed Leather, for those looking to reward themselves (or a special someone) for surviving 2020.

The Saint Laurent Christmas 2020 Capsule Collection would be available at all local Saint Laurent boutiques from 20th November 2020.
