Austin Butler Fronts Saint Laurent Fall 2026 Campaign

By The Fashion Editorial Team

For Saint Laurent’s Fall 2026 menswear campaign, Anthony Vaccarello presents the house’s signatures with Austin Butler and SJ. Photographed by Talia Chetrit, the campaign leans into cinematic minimalism to express Saint Laurent’s modern sensibility.

Set within expansive modernist interiors, polished, reflective surfaces evoke an atmosphere of meticulous restraint. Butler appears before an early-2000s silver Corvette in a pristine garage, while flashes of colorful parakeets punctuate the otherwise controlled environment. Furniture sits preserved beneath protective plastic wrap, introducing a sense of preservation and suspended heritage.

Sharp double-breasted tailoring with pronounced peak lapels is worn shirtless, creating a tension between structure and visibility. A lacquered canvas trench coat and silken cravat introduce a moment of precision, while a classic car coat, dress shirt, and tucked-in tie are subverted by cotton poplin, tailored striped pajamas. Patent leather loafers complete the look, lending an edge that feels refined yet subtly defiant.
