In a time where online continues to reign as retail king, the opening of a new brick and mortar outpost can feel almost revelatory. Especially when it belongs to a maison as revered as Saint Laurent. The brand's Rive Droite concept store on Paris' rue Saint Honoré, opened to the public June 8, was conceived by creative director Anthony Vaccarello as a space for expression, exchange and lifestyle.

A nod to the brand's ready-to-wear line Rive Gauche, the multipurpose destination serves as a tangible glimpse into the Saint Laurent universe as both a retail store stocking exclusive and limited edition pieces, vintage and archival, music, photography and literature, as well as a platform for artistic performances, exhibitions, events and cultural exchanges.

Saint Laurent Rive Droite is now open, and located at 213, rue Saint Honoré 75001 Paris.
