Anthony Vaccarello, Saint Laurent’s creative director, chose Jim Jarmusch to orchestrate a short film where dreamy sequences and surreal choreographies tell an original and beautiful story.
A dinner party. A lone waiter played by Leo Reilly watches and waits patiently as the guests search for Charlotte Gainsbourg. The echoes of their whispers multiply.
The mysterious and elusive Charlotte keeps disappearing and reappearing while Indya Moore, Julianne Moore, and Chloë Sevigny try to follow her. Their movements are tangled until they create a form of vertigo, space and time spin beautifully. Into eternity.
An airy scenography composed of fresh floating white curtains, reflections, and human shadows is complemented by domestic elements like a wooden bed or chairs. A digital ‘window’ projected across the wall reveals a glimpse of the outside world, where a blue cloudy sky meets Fendi’s signature headquarter in Rome, Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana.
The set reflects the palette of the collection, worn by the multifaceted cast of models, including Henry Kitcher and Chun Soot. As they fill the space, shadows and light accentuate the workmanship of each garment, disclosing a unique story across the looks.
