Article SAINT TROPEZ FOR AW 2018 The new visual identity is ready for presentation, and the collection is a cornucopia of delicate and feminine details, beautiful blooming artworks, soft textiles and dropped lengths mixed with tight zipped through claret coloured leather skirt & warm, chunky tactile knits. A collection that states a "no saint" message with an attitude for the new season. The colour hues are brighter than ever playing with the red colour scale from soft pink and claret red to preppy purple. The AW 18 collection also introduces the "sustainable choice" with jeans washed with less than a cup of water and the essential T-shirt made from organic cotton with embroidered quotes uniting fashion and sustainability in a poetic way.
