A NEW ERA FOR AN ICONIC PARISIAN ADDRESS
Housed in the historic location of the former concept store colette, at the corner of Rue Saint-Honoré and Rue du 29 Juillet, Saint Laurent Rive Droite re-opened its doors in February 2025 following extensive renovations. The name, a playful reference to the legendary Rive Gauche line, reflects a new vision that democratizes luxury beyond fashion. The space is open to the public, inviting visitors to explore art installations, browse a curated selection of art books, and immerse themselves in its unique atmosphere.
The boutique recently featured paintings by Italian avant-garde artist Francesco Clemente, who was commissioned by Anthony Vaccarello for the House’s Summer 2025 campaign. Looking ahead, the space will host an exhibition by conceptual artist Tiona Nekkia McClodden, opening on September 11th.
CURATED LIFESTYLE PIECES & EXCLUSIVE COLLABORATIONS
Beyond its ready-to-wear collections, Saint Laurent Rive Droite presents a highly collectible selection of lifestyle pieces and limited-edition collaborations. These curated items, which range from branded apparel to small objects, also include collaborations with renowned French heritage brands. The unique selection, curated by Anthony Vaccarello, features pieces like crystal glassware with Baccarat, solid silver lighters with S.T. Dupont, and golden pocket knives with Opinel, ensuring every item aligns with the House’s creative vision.
A BOLD ARCHITECTURAL AND CULINARY VISION
The store’s interior features a sleek and modern design of wood, concrete, and metal. It was developed in collaboration with Donald Judd Furniture, the company founded by American minimalist artist Donald Judd. The space showcases iconic furniture designs and offers exclusive pieces for purchase, reinforcing the store's dedication to design.
The ground floor also introduces the first permanent location of Sushi Park outside of Los Angeles. This intimate, refined restaurant, accessible from a discreet entrance, offers an exceptional omakase tasting experience and marks Saint Laurent’s first venture into fine dining.
THE RIVE DROITE UNIVERSE EXPANDS
The Rive Droite concept extends beyond its flagship Paris location. Saint Laurent Babylone, a cultural destination and bookstore on Rue de Grenelle, focuses on books, music, and photography, with a dedicated program of cultural events. Its name pays tribute to the Sèvres-Babylone neighborhood, where Yves Saint Laurent lived and worked. The concept also has an outpost in Los Angeles, bringing a blend of California's free-spirited energy with the House’s signature French sophistication.
