-SPECIAL- “SAINT LAURENT” 2016’s- lamé velvet tuxedo trousers

Since its founding in 1961, SAINT LAURENT has fused Parisian refinement with a hint of rock, infusing tailoring with a sensuous tension. We are pleased to present a special piece featuring finely woven glitter.

On a deep black velvet base, glitter particles are blended so that they delicately come to life when struck by light; from afar they read as subdued black trousers, while up close they reveal a depth of radiance.

The surface of the fabric, with velour's characteristic smooth nap, creates variations in light and shade, and the extremely fine glitter specks scatter across it, resulting in something decorative yet not overly ostentatious, allowing SAINT LAURENT's nocturnal mood and the beauty of precise tailoring to be perceived simultaneously.

A glossy contrast reminiscent of tuxedo pants is applied around the waist, with belt loops receiving a similar sheen, making it not merely velour pants, but a piece completed to translate formalwear contexts into everyday attire.

From the front to the hem, the clean vertical line is striking, and the slender glossy edging along the sides naturally shapes the leg silhouette; while the velvet's softness remains, the overall silhouette is tightened, allowing a beautiful coexistence of relaxed fabric and the formal tension of dress pants.

The line toward the hem is straight-leaning, moving with the body, with the nap of the velour and the glitter's sparkle subtly changing; its expression emerges only when walking, which is highly captivating, and rather than emphasizing flashiness, its depth of texture speaks to its individuality.

As for its age, the paper tag and the woven label inside the waist show SAINT LAURENT PARIS, matching the logo system the brand has used since its rebranding, so it can be regarded as a post-2016 piece; however, since season codes and care tag details cannot be confirmed, it would be prudent to refrain from determining a specific season or designer.

As a mood, this piece is intended for those who wish to add a quiet sense of exclusivity to everyday wear, not limiting to glamorous event scenes; though a familiar item—black pants—the glitter-velour and tuxedo-like contrasts elevate daily styling to a higher level.

Styling: Pair with a crisp jacket or a shirt with a relaxed drape to heighten SAINT LAURENT's sharp mood, while leather shoes or heeled boots complete an elegant, fashion-forward impression. Additionally, when paired with a long coat or a minimalist top, the delicate sparkle of the glitter adds depth to the overall look, creating a quietly understated, unisex allure.

Please take this opportunity.
