With his signature brushstrokes and lyrical use of colour, Clemente captures the quiet, magnetic strength of femininity—mirroring the sensual restraint of Anthony Vaccarello’s vision for Saint Laurent. A dialogue between tenderness and form, the latest campaign serves as an expression of fashion as art and art as fashion.
