Defining Moment:
Spring 2017 — Debut at Saint Laurent; provocation refined into structure

Anthony Vaccarello

( 
2016 – present

an-toh-nee vah-kah-rel-lo

Vaccarello rebuilt Saint Laurent as geometry and glamour.

He compressed Yves’ seduction into steel — razor cuts, bare legs, shadow and light.

His world is architectural and erotic: minimalism charged with power, discipline fused with desire.

Each collection stands like a monument to precision — emotion measured in line and angle.

Structural Focus

Body as Measure

Human scale, movement, or wear calibrates the work. Proportion is felt physically rather than visually alone.

In Anthony Vaccarello’s work, this approach appears where line and cut structure the body through restraint rather than excess.

Constructed Surfaces
Surfaces are built through layering, joining, and controlled fabrication.
Systems of Clarity
Order and coherence arise through disciplined systems and constraints.
Structure
Structure holds the work through rules, joins, and controlled relationships between parts.
Proportion
Proportion organizes coherence through measured intervals, scale, and relation.
Gesture
Gesture functions as structure through disciplined, repeatable action.
Fashion
Form is constructed around the body through material, proportion, and movement.
Contemporary
Current practice engages inherited structures under present conditions.

Structual Relations
The following practices are connected through shared structural decisions in form, material, and spatial logic.

ⓘ
How are these related?
Quiet Modernism relates practices through how form is organized rather than how it appears. Connections emerge through shared structural conditions — such as repetition, constraint, spatial organization, material behavior, or duration — even when outcomes differ.

A single grouping may reflect multiple overlapping structural concerns.
