HOME BASE: Anthony Vaccarello, who has taken men’s collections for Saint Laurent on the road the previous couple of years, will return to Paris for an IRL show during Men’s Fashion Week on Jan. 17, sources told WWD.

The venue and other details couldn’t immediately be learned.

Men’s collections for fall 2023 are to be unveiled within the French capital from menswear from Jan. 17 to Jan. 22.

He has also staged Saint Laurent men’s shows in Jersey City, Latest Jersey, Venice, Italy, and Malibu, California, lately.

Saint Laurent’s return to the French capital should give extra oomph to the Paris men’s shows, which have been gaining momentum lately.

As well as, many brands — including Comme des Garçons and Thom Browne — have returned to the Paris schedule because the COVID-19 pandemic eased or as they uncoupled coed shows to place an even bigger highlight on men’s collections, comparable to Givenchy did last June. — MILES SOCHA
